| Our company wants to buy a rework station for BGA's. I would like to know what is a good BGA rework station. IR or hot air? Do we need a rework station with optical placement or can BGa's be placed manually during rework. We have seen a demo of an

| Can anyone tell me if there is a reference for smt component height specs on the bottom side of a board, which will also go through wave soldering. A current design I am reviewing has tant caps(7343) and a crystal on the back side. Should I only b

Hi Anthony! Earl's right, things can get rather involved when you start discussing ALL the things that affect whether or not a board is going to warp. The way I look at the issue is try to separate the warp issue into two catagories; 1. The board bei

| We currently bake plastic SMT parts in accordance with the IPC guidelines for moisture sensitive parts. Because we have double-sided boards that are subjected to either an aqueous or semi-aqueous cleaning process, we do a 24 hour bake at 125 deg.

| We had a similar problem. But whenever the solder came from the screen printer the solder would wet to the gold fingers, with the help of residual flux. But the problem is balls, that I assume are not wetted to the gold fingers but instead are jus
