The QFN is found to have contact problem during FCT. The paste that I am currently using is SnPb 63/37 water soluble paste. Is it because of water soluble paste? (unable to clean after reflow process as QFN is entrapped by paste/flux) Should we use

Hi Rick, Water soluble flux is heatee, deionized water. So, use DI, and keep it heated. It is also important that the water be moving, so that fresh water is continually being presented to the fluxed surfaces, and the flux-laden water is continually

What kind of flux/solder paste are you using water soluble or no clean

EdgeTech SMT Tech here. I was questioning the process our Engineers are using concerning Water Soluble solder paste. I have no experience with this paste. I was wondering what need so be done differently when using this paste. As far as I know the on

There are solder pastes that seem to give you less voiding. Currently we are using Kester ,water soluble paste that gives us pretty good results on BGA's up to 0.5mm pitch. Stencil design was a challenge but we are getting consistent results . Here

Currently I am using a water soluble solder paste and no clean wire solder. For awhile now I have been pushing to switch to no clean across the board. Can anyone give me an idea of how this will effect production? Switching to no clean will allow m

Sorry it has taken me so long to respond. I got pulled off onto other projects and was not able to work on the solution to the problen until recently. The solution we have come up with is to change from no-clean flux based solder paste to water sol

We use water soluble paste, Kester R560. These units are wave soldered and cleaned in an Electrovert Aquastorm water wash with a 3% Kester saponifier solution in the first stage.

At this moment in time we are using water soluble solder paste on our PCBs these are cleaned using water only, agitated with ultrasonics. After drying a white/grey residue is left around solder joints. Reflow profile is fine and a reliable wash proce
