Wouldn't think of them as peas and carrots. Maybe, tree and carrot. ITAR: Export regulations that are specific. Board fabricators may choose to be ITAR registered. AS9100: Aerospace tailored version of ISO9000. So, it's general. In it's base form, AS

Guys I have a question since the ever present problem with the crack switch we had to change to a low temp lead free solder paste in these case eutectic 58Bi/42Sn and 57Bi/42Sn/1Ag alloys, now the main question whats diferent between these one and th

At risk of raising a topic that has already been discussed at length, if that is the case then please point me in the right direction. We have a Lead-Free assembly that has BGA devices on both sides of the board. Any recommendations as to how we mig

Hello, My company is looking at the possibility of bringing in an SPI machine. I was wondering if anybody can advise me on what I should be looking for, and questions I should be asking to evaluate different vendors. I know of two different technolo

Hello Everyone, I have noticed that everytime that we have ran a PCB with fine pitch components (or even 0603s), there are little white strands on the leads or on top of the components. It occurs on both lead and lead free solder. We usually soak

It would be nice, save you money, improve yield, improve reliability, etc. if your reflow process was more effective. It sounds like you're not getting the part hot enough during reflow soldering. Tell us about: * Measured temperature on this bluetoo

There's not really a good answer except that I think that the industry wasn't really prepared for such an increased use of white soldermask combined with the importance of using the white as a reflecting surface. Essentially, the resins commonly u

Hi! Thanks to everyone! Josh, I don't think it could be something wrong with the mechanics, as just one component was rotated. Anyway, we will check the mechanical parts of the oven. LarryD, thank you for the advice. But what is the physics of the

Hi Sergey, Do you know the Moisture Sensitivity Level of the component ? This is normally recorded on the DRY PACK that the device comes in. It is not unusual for a device to POP CORN and still work in test. It depends how much damage there is to th
