IPC-A-600G, 2.9 Solder Resist [Solder Mask] [snip]"Solder resists are used to limit and control the application of solder to selected areas of the printed circuit board during assembly soldering operations and are sometimes used to reduce dendritic f

Pick & Place > Wave-solder > other parts > test > conformal coating Is there any production error that could make a ceramic cap conductive? PS: want to add one point: The caps don't seem to be cracked. We changed a few 100 and didn't notice any bro

Thanks for your reply. This production lot is already finished. We produced in 2 lots, first was no-clean (and was ok), 2nd lot was cleaned (aqua based), and I need to look into the cleaning further. Since it's all finished I can't get parts from se

I have a large monoblock ceramic filter on a PTFE based pcb material. The filter has a metal casing soldered onto the ceramic filter. I am concerned that if the heating rate is to rapid, then thermal shock / differential expansion could cause the fil

Soldering PTFE boards * Exposure to the high temperatures needed for solder reflow poses no problem of loss of peel strength since the exposure times are relatively short. * There are many different types of PTFE based products that may perform diff

For the capacitors that Yageo analyzed... Were they taken out at representative points in the process?? ie. were samples taken from pre-assembly, pre-ICT, post-conformal coat, post-final test? You note that the parts 'seem' to be ok up to ICT. And

Dave, I am not exactly sure what is driving them to believe that this is a capacitor issue. It is unfortunate, that this belief has slowed their activity in further understanding their manufacturing process. The caps are BME (Base Metal Electrode

Ramon, I have had experience in the problems you are witnessing. The problem can relate to a number of factors. Obviously the printing process is the first place to start your investigations, try looking at the stencil apertures for bleed under the
