Sorry for stating this incorrectly. It should been: Bow & twist for bare boards and panels: IPC-A-610 Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies, 10.6: 1.5% for PTH only and 0.75% for SMT, acording to test method TM-650, method 2.4.22 IPC-6012, par. 3.

Can anyone advise how to measure flatness of a surface?Flatness on top of IC..

For flatness - Put the part on a leveling plate and roll a dial indicator across it. The leveling plate is not required for a true flatness check but using this will also work for parallelism of lead base to top of body.

Good morning Ken, Thank you for your feedback. Just as a clarification, SMD stands for Surface Mount Device. Although my end product, in this case, is a SMD, it might be also referenced as a board. In the other hand, what I get from your feedback i

Good afternoon all, There is an issue in my company regarding flatness on SMDs. The part I am fabricating is a multilayer assembly of .175" by .175" by .049" thick. The part is made out of a multilayer copper clad PTFE with a tin finish surface. Af

Assuming you are talking about solderable surfaces: People specify various materials to protect the solderability of the pads on the board. Gold, actually, Electroless Nickel - Immersion Gold [ENIG], is popular. * Board fabricators like it because

I does depend on the level of technology of the PCB. RoHS-HASL for basic products and Silver Immersion for a flat finish, are my preferred.

Hi Dave, Immersion Ag has poor surface appearances after reflow or rather tarnished, while Immersion Tin requries higher temp. Probably that's why Immersion Ag is more preferred.

Hi, Recently, i found a company called "jlcpcb". It’s very cheap 10pcs boards. 1.2mm thick, 1-OZ copper, 6/6-mil outer (0.1525mm) just cost $2 Cheap price and lots of options regarding board thickness, colour, etc. None of my boards have ever had a

Bill: I'd expect better gasketing on a nice flat solder mask surface rather than the edge of the stencil opening mashed down on a irregular shaped hunk of solder attached to a pad. Stop thinking and get printing Dave F
