Mark, We print and dispense with Amicon "D 125 F". Solvent used is Electrolube "SSS", which is also used for solder paste removal/pcb cleaning for misprints and rework both manually and ultrasonically. I like it - good stuff but at $25 AU per litre i

Istvan, One possible reason for this is that you are using a water soluble flux in your wave solder machine. If you are and the boards are not pre heated long enough, the water in the flux does not evaporate before hitting the wave. When the water

Hi, The major reason is that the flux is still "wet", you should fix the temp. profile (specialy preheat zone) so the evaporation of flux carriers will be better (anyway not to much !). Recommended: 1st preheat zone heating to ~70C , 2nd&3rd prehea

The bottom side is going into reflow somewhare near melting point of solder. Reduce bottom side temprature. Get a good mole so ramp and soak tempratures can be checked on bolth sides of the PCB. The object is to keep bottom side parts from approching

Hi! What exatly you do? Do you reflow the both sides of the board at the same time or you reflow your second side? I think in both cases you should decrease you bottom zones. If you reflow both sides - with 10-20C(F) If you reflow the second side - w

Hi Dhanashekar, I'm with Chris on this one, unless you are carrying out 0201 or ultra fine pitch placement it's a helpful but not critical tool. We found most print errors were avoided using the 2D vision on the printer, combined with plenty of aut

You got what I think someone has called a "cold melt". If you were to run your removal profile awhile longer you would not see this. Anyway, you don't have any issues as this is very common (at least in my experience). FYI I was thinking your oxid

Many times a pad that has no signal trace going to it will come off. It does happen from heat and time as noted before. Somtimes even the best rework person will remove them. If this can not happen in your situation I would recommend that you use

JEDEC defines packaging, matrix trays, tape and reel, and like whatnot. You need to be searching ANSI and IPC. Find these documents: * ANSI/J-STD-020, Moisture/Reflow Sensitivity Classification for Plastic Integrated Circuit Surface Mount Devices *

Had the very same thing happen the first time we used the small QFNs. The aperture for the thermal pad in the center needs to be cut in a grid form, either squares (with around a 10 mil spacing between openings) or circles, like a BGA pattern. Too mu
