is not as simple as stating manufacturing efficiency is what makes manufacturing important. The pressure is built up on production staff. Procurement costs, manufacturing process costs and do not forget finance department's innovative skills in cost

Often, people cause ESD damage. • Your body easily picks up charge (electrons) • Your skin, hair and body can store relatively large amounts of static charge. • You can transfer (discharge) this electrical charge to components or assemblies - causi

It should also be noted that if you can control your humidity, you can reduce the chance of static build-up. Do you monitor the humidity in your facility? This alone, can be the greatest contributor to static build-up and ESD damage. But back to t

How many failures? This is hard to quantify. How could you unless you witnessed a spark and all of a sudden the product no longer works. The truth is you could have a discharge and not even know it. It could brush against your clothing, or as we

After selecting a few ovens based on the mfr's specifications, I plan to send them a thermal "slug" to run in their ovens (a 1/4" thick, high temp fiberglass slab with imbedded thermocouples). Since we are replacing ovens with fixed speed blowers wit

thank you for your reply. I felt like I was using too much heat but I thought it would not work unless I did so. I did not suspect a cold solder joint, however I did another test on a scrap board. I heated the board without my clamps attached (I put

The more that I chew the idea of outgassing through the pad theory, the less I like it. Why would something, water???, choose to outgass through the pad when moving through the solder mask would be a path of much less resistance? And why wouldn't the
