Sorry to build up your hopes. The latest thing to hit the air ways at work, I was accessed of fiddling with the oven settings, because there were reports of "cracked joints" there was no mention of where the cracks were, cracked at the pcb or cracke

Thanks Dave, I will be sticking with Manufacturing Engineering. These are good guidelines but what is standard clearance for various packages? This is a dimension we usually seek by eye, whether we will have a problem or not. We use straight DI -

We have experienced contamination under flat chip arrays. The lab report is still open but it appears to be dendrite growth. We have been trouble-shooting our process and cleaning equipment. My question is are there any specific design or best p

There is no standard as such. It's easy to see why. It's too complicated and has such a small payoff. Standoff is comprised of: * Package height * Solder thickness between the pad and the component lead * Delta of pad thickness and solder mask For p

Naw, accounting is boring. Standoff could be an issue. Coupla things: * Above 30 thou, just about any cleaning process, more sophisticated than a garden hose, will produce acceptable results * Below 10 thou, can be cleaned with best efforts, but not

Hi, Pl let me know about opinion/experience whether thick film chip SMD resistor which is MSL-1 Required to bake before being usedon SMT line. I want to use SMD resistance spool which is around 2 yeasr old kept at 25 deg room temperature at around 4

MSL 1 is unlimited factory floor time before reflow. I have spools that are 10+ years old and haven't encountered any issues using those parts. It goes without saying those parts are not exactly used in volume so its not a massive sample but that is

Cracked capacitors usually are not found at ICT. Unless the cap is completely cracked, the capacitance may not change much, and the usual failure mode is a leakage current. This is usually only seen in ESS type testing, when temperature and humidit

Hi, I'm not the expert DaveF is, however I have seen quite a few cracked chip capaictors in my time - most of these were from lack of Z height adjustment on a turret chipshooter to compensate for various thickness. Do you have separate 1206 thick
