| The question raised by our components engineering group is, is it possible to tell whether these failures are thermally or mechanically induced. The focus of design engineering up until now has been on process. Are our reflow temps ok, are the pa

Q1: What is "enough surface free energy"? A1: Look here for background: http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=1575 Q2: How do I determine surface free energy? A2: We look at it a relative term. For instance, a semi matte finish on solder mask

All SM machines pick components with a vacuum nozzle. Most likely the component is picked in the geometric center, which may not be the center of gravity ( SOT 23, SO 89 ). Any other pick position than the center may be taught upon requirement, but y

We find that the raw BGA's pad sheared surface has the SnPb solder at various Z heights whereas the assembled BGAs pad leave a smooth layer of SnPb along the pad. Like to understand the cause for the difference. Who could guess? Solder joint streng
