Hi We are mounting an microphone device (SMT package) onto a PCB which has an ENIG finish and, observed some contamination on the underside of the device, post reflow. The SEM analysis shows that the contamination has a high level of Carbon. Where c

We are mounting an microphone device (SMT package) onto a PCB - how? Surface mount line or hand soldering? Contamination can only come from the solder paste, solder wire, flux, or burning the component/PCB assembly during hand soldering. Unless the

OK Eric, is difficult answer at distance without examine the PCB..., anyway in my opinion the problem is the PCB quality. There are two possibility : the crack is between solder and nickel or is between nickel and pad copper. In both situation the

I dont know about analysis on boards it is OK as long as the people carrying it out know how to interogate the answers.I worked on a problem just last week where an analysis house in China tested the resist then the pads and found on both surfaces C

Low Silver Solder Problems

OK Eric, maybe you're right. My suggestion is to proceed by exclusion. First perform the tape test. Is easy and without costs. You have used many similar PCB without problem, but from the same vendor ? Is my experience that in similar cases the qua

Carbon Ink vs Immersion Gold for key pads.

Electronics Forum | Wed May 03 15:00:44 EDT 2006 | patrickbruneel

It all depends on process, design and environment in which the contacts are used. Both have excellent conductivity characteristics Both don't oxidize over time On the other hand gold is much softer then carbon, and after hitting that contact a gazil

Aqueous cleaner water disposal
