Profiles design is primarily determined by oven geometry, paste specifications and component thermal limitations. This means that no one "standard" profile exists for all production. A free profile planning utility can be quickly downloaded from

We are assembling BGA [Texas Instruments (TMS320C6201)] that has metal slugs in the packaging that act as heat sinks. What are your recommendations for inspecting the solder connections on such devices?

ASTM E 443 is a test for sulfur by Oxygen Flask Combustion. Other instruments will detect sulfur (I assume a SEM with EDS capability will pick up the sulfur). We had an addition cure silicone potting compound inhibition problem last year that was t

Saw one at Apex last year, pretty cool device. Not cheap, though, as you've stated. Zarrow thinks everyone that's doing BGA should have one. O.C. White makes an instrument that does something quite similar, although I think it uses more mirrors and

In line with the previous poster's comments, * BIG SMT EMI shields are tough to reflow. * SMT EMI frame and snap-in cover [after reflow] shields work fine. The SMT EMI shield design that we like the best is from Instrument Specialties, EZ Peel PCB
