All that they are telling is important (variants in the process), what you can do in a fast way is: change the component for a new one (date of manufacture / other supply - if you have); change the component (test - same package but other specificati

Does anyone have experience with using Pb-free SAC105? We are looking at the pro's/con's compared to a SAC305 process for a SMT operation. I have read it has a higher melting temperature. Specifically, we are concerned about a product we are developi

Questions are: * Can you use the part fabricator's specification of lead coplanairity as the basis for accepting this build? * Beyond the issue of acceptable deformation of the leads, how do you know that whatever you did to bend the two outer leads

Your specification for all PCB suppliers of 'solder mask over bare copper using LPI on external layers (green)' is broad and open to the use of material from many possible LPI suppliers by your board fabricator. In at least one case, it appears that
