If you bake the boards at 125 degrees celcius for about 4 hours it should work. I would also suggest that you talk to the PCB supplier to take care of this baking for you. NOTE: PCB�s with an Entek or any other type of OSP finish should not be baked.

Yes. Baking boards is best. Hitting the hamer on the head!

Thanks for the info! What's a good type of oven for baking boards in?

If these are these bare [or partially assembled] boards, baking probably will not hurt, as long as the bake is not excessive. If these are these assembled boards, baking probably will not accomplish much. What is the source of this water? If it's

Post-reflow delamination is almost always caused by entrapped moisture. Here's more from the fine SMTnet Archives ... http://www.smtnet.com/Forums/Index.cfm?CFApp=1&Message_ID=64774 As Graham Cooper suggests in an earlier posting on this thread, ba

First, what do you mean by "mishandled OSP" boards? Second, we don't like to bake our OSP boards, because of the potential to degrade the coating. Why do you want to bake these boards? Third, why not paste-up a board, reflow it, and assess the sol

There is no standard for baking an assembled board prior to BGA rework, nor should there be. The amount of time required to bake a board varies with: * Board material. * Board construction and layers. * Board size. * Components on the board. If som

Charly: Why do you "need to bake the PCb due to moisture issue", if you're not going to use the board? Why bake the board, just to put it back in storage, absorb moisture, and require baking again?

Tran Since we all agree that J-001 has no baking requirement, why are you baking the boards? What is the purpose of this bake process?
