Hi to everyone in this forum. I came across this problem recently. Im not sure how it started and its rootcause. The chip resistor termination has been peeled off. Thanks in advance for all your advise.

Can you give more info: - Hand-soldered? Placed by Pick&Place machine? What kind of SMT machine? - Oven re-flowed? Temperature? - Any physical impact?

Thanks DucHoang, More input: 1. Tin/Lead s.paste on Pbfree component 2. Machine pick and place 3. Reflowed@ 210-230C peak @ around 15sec. 4. Boards are subjected to washing process 5. This issue can be seen after washing process. Do you think it

The program I'm working on is having endcap metallization/resistive element failures. These are on MELFs manufactured by IRC/TTE (MCHP). A sister program is having the same issues. They pulled a couple of date codes and did visual examination and

Hello all, The situation: We recently had 2 brand new solder wave installed, one after the other. On the first one, the "protective coating" on the solder pot started to flake off 1 day after start-up. The tech who did the installation witnessed it a

Hello there! In one SMPS, I noticed a blown resistor with the following color code: yellow (4) Violet(7) Gold(?) Gold Black. I'm not sure what the value is. The dimensions of the resistor are those of a conventional MF0207 metal film resistor. I assu

Glen, Although the previous answers probably fit the problem you are having, we recently found that during pin insertion on an Autosplice machine, the gold was flaking from the pins and lodging between the legs of surface mount components. It would

Curtis, They have a 'permalex' coating bonded to the metal. We see no signs of flaking. They are pricey but they do work, we had metal blades from the OEM, they were absolute trash (not MPM). We run 16-6 and they last at least 4 to six months in

Can any one help me on articles about reasons for metal film resistor value drifting after working over a period of time Thank you
