That would be one BIG spreadsheet, there are a lot of mfg with a lot of components for each one. As you know when going to the datasheetlocator you notice the huge listing of suppliers (500+) each one of them probbaly has anywhere from 1 type of co

Low-consumption Nitrogen configurations with an on-board O2 analyzer is the ideal way to go. I cannot speak for all oven manufacturers, but ours have N2 fed to the reflow zone only, which to me is really only where you need it. The gauges/flowmeters

We are sometimes, not always, seeing very large voids in the solder joints of BGA's with Via in Pad. Some lots of PCB will have the voids and other lots of boards will not. I feel the via's are outgassing during reflow, due to the PCB not having been

We had a great deal of trouble cleaning adhesive residue from stencils using an alcohol stencil washer. Same kind of thing, adhesive build-up in aperture corners. The solution we came up with was to convert our stencil washer to run Zestron ES200, a
