Just curious what effect pinholes and solder voids can have on solder joints that have high current passing thru them. Also could moisture from steam sterilization (autoclaving) get inside a said solder joint and then outgas during high current, and/

Hi, blow holes / pin holes / holes in joints are usually a sign that there is excess moisture somewhere around the solder joint. Moisture can be in pcbs / components, so try drying them....a simple thing to do is pass a bare pcb throught your reflow

Hi , Looking at your photo....can I also see a hole in the middle of the joint on the chip component ? Maybe its not just a problem with th ejoint son diodes ? Did you also get mid chip solder balls on chips? If so, I'd almost guarantee the pcb has t

Hi ji tae, we had a similar problem with QFPs 0,5 pitch processed by one subcontractor. The symptoms we noticed were: - the solderjointshape and wetting looked normal - the surface had a dull gray appearance - by pushing a lead sideways with a tweez

The typical PIP process is incorporated into the surface mount process. This approach requires the following: The stencil will be designed so that the correct amount of solder paste can be printed onto the through-holes to form an acceptable joint

can anyone help with information about I-shape of SMDs. our Design includes this shape of contacts. we are searching for information on quality judgement of solder joints with I-leads on Pads. Please help.
