Good afternoon everyone,
We have a customer that wants to specify "cleaning processes" on a board that typically has a "no clean process". Normally, I would not care, but I have one component on this board for which I question the cleaning process.
There is a leadless surface mount package (attenuator). This package has a center pad, and several leadless pins around the outside of the component. This also sits flush to the board. Our concern is cleaning the area between the pins and the center pad.
Is there a specification or can someone point me in the direction of a minimum clearance for a water wash without the use of a saponifier?
