raw copper on pcb

Electronics Forum | Thu Jun 07 05:11:42 EDT 2012 | cp38260

Hi, I have pcbs (Duroid/RT 5880) with raw copper, soldered in vapour-phase chamber at 230 degrees Celsius. During soldering, copper gets tarnished. Cleaning with Vigon A250 removes the tarnished layer. Indeed, in the VigonA250 techn. datasheet it is

| We currently use HASL on all of our boards and I would like to move to something else. I have sampled some boards with Entek OSP and I loved it, the problem is we have plated mounting holes on just about every board we make. Does anyone have info

From the poor bonding strength of the board, the surface quality problems of the board are divided into: 1. The cleanliness of the board surface; 2. The problem of micro graphite (or surface energy) on the surface. PCB circuit board proofing Youke bo

Verifying requested copper weight

Electronics Forum | Tue Apr 24 09:19:51 EDT 2018 | vetteboy86

Is there a preferred method among printed circuit board assembly for accurately and quickly verifying the copper weight of a printed circuit board? I would like a tool and process that our quality inspector could quickly use to verify upon receipt of

Your copper corrosion is not good. It indicates that you have not done a good job in cleaning. [We assume this is a medium green color, not unlike the color of the solder mask on your board, that is almost like a translucent lacquer; rather than th

Look at: http://thor.inemi.org/webdownload/newsroom/Presentations/09.pdf Page 47 shows both alloys to be similar in reliability although its a little troublesome that the particular defects are not isolated as I feel there is a big difference betwee

Hi, rod, The exposed copper area you could do with ENIG. It is with good solderability.

No clean solder paste

Is the no clean solder paste as good? We are wondering if we can elliminate the wash when we change from through hole to surface mount.

No clean flux residue

Electronics Forum | Fri Jun 01 12:07:53 EDT 2001 | medernach

No clean residues can range in appearance from brownish gunk that looks like tree sap (because it is in some instances) to almost no residue at all. Is this product exposed to a wave soldering process or SMT? I would guess it's a wave process if th

There are chemistries out there that will solublize some post-solder NC flux residues. I have had success with Zestron material Vigon A200 and Petroferm material Hydrex DX. Go to http://www.zestron.com and http://www.petroferm.com These are chemical
