Only use the shop air if it is clean and dry. I know from experience that one can get water and a little oil from the compressor in the air lines. We are in a drier climate with humidity levels in the 25%-35% range on average. All we do is let the

I know it is not what you want to hear, but first and foremost, you must consult your local regulating agencies and here is why: Solder paste contains heavy metals. We are all familiar with the problems associated with lead, but lead free solder pas

I am a PCB Designer and I have to put a note on the assembly drawing to tell the assembler how to clean the board. This is new to me. Here is a sample note. Can someone give me some feedback on it? "Use water washable, no clean solder paste for t

Water will not remove no clean flux residues because they are not water soluble. Solder paste with no clean flux should only be used when the assemblies do not need to be cleaned. That said, you can buy special cleaning solvents specifically for re

Is it sufficent to simply put meter probes in the water to get a resistance reading? I'm very skeptical of the Culligan man as they tried to pass distilled water for DI water. As I watched my container being filled I asked how they determined when

Ahhhh, Dave, I'm glad I can still count on you for some real cutting edge info. yuck, yuck. Believe me, there's a lot more information available on how to resolve no-clean issues than there is on how to keep this stupid board wash/DI/Stencil wash/
