I'm a new guy in this field. I have a question about solder paste process. Is there any effect to the solderbility if we do a lot of contact to copper pad without using any insulation ( direct to the finger ). Where can i get information about smt pr

Hi fellow problem solvers,... We suspect a planarity problem with our 6 mil wide flex circuit pads having height variance of up to 2 mils after print and reflow. This is contributing to a placement skew with our TAB bonder... Has anyone had any succe

Is a water-soluble flux based paste an option for the bottom side? Then you could wash the residues from the board before wave. That's the only way we've tried that process. The difficulty we had was with some disturbed joints, apparently from s

We ran doublesided SMT thru Glue and Wave process before and but faced a lot of skip solder. Then the customer told us that they have similar problem when they ran the board so what they did was they print the paste-dispense the glue- place the comp

That's a good idea...and to add on to it, you could wash after the wave, too--it really doesn't matter. A question about this though--unless your Customer specifically requires "clean", no-clean flux whether it's ugly or not, is permitted by IPC,

Solder flux and solder paste deposition is a standard step during the chip attach and sphere attach portions of BGA and CSP assembly. A technique called ultra-violet fluorescence intensity mapping (UV FIM) has been introduced that allows flux measure

If there is no specific quality reason, stay with paste. More processes you add, more points of failure. They don't need a lot of paste to get attached to the board. The ones I used were 8mil round apertures, so I did cut 1:1 on a 3 mil coated stenci

We are using MPM and DEK printers, what are the critical variables for measuring print process capability?
