Hi Ron, Your question really opens up a "Pandora's box", but when you say you're not able to print perfectly, what is it exactly that you mean? Is the print lacking volume? Is it mis-registered? Are you bridging? Also, what printers have you used? Do

Gregory, I think that the profile is too radical, i.e. zone 6 to zone 7 temperatures are too far apart. I would guess that the solderjoints have not all reached 183C in zone 6 which is why the uBGA's do not have a symmetrical ball collapse. You may

First question - do you have a rework station? If so, are you experiencing the same type of failures there? I have successfully used no-clean on uBGA's in the past. 6 mil solder bumps, 10 mil spacing. 88 sites. Are you reusing previously soldered uB

Good job clarifying things. So, your MELF are just rolling off the pads. So much for the rocket scientist that talked you into those �V� shaped apertures, eh? [Or taking it the other way: Wow, just think how bad it would be if they weren�t worki

Its interesting. It appears I'm getting conflicting feeback from Indium. This says its not a problem... http://indium.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/indium.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_sid=kTDKGClg&p_lva=&p_faqid=355&p_created=1014734692&p_sp=cF9ncmlkc29

Dear Kanwaljit Singh, my opinion is following: 1)solderpaste type is ok - usual (alpha-metals has this problem inside the paste paste- holder problem) - what do the operator when production change -clean well the stencil holes!! no visible rest on

Hi Rick, Last year I've test about 15 different solder paste. To procede, I've started with different tests listed in different brochure including IPC. At the biginning, I had 15 different tests to do and at the end ( for the last 7 product ) I've

Find out your maximum feeder loading (number of slots taken up, not number of feeders - 8mm, 16mm, 44mm, waffle packs tubes etc), and your likely long term max feeder loading (ie what is in the pipeline, or could be). Next find out your required run

Hi, We have been soldering lead free BGA's onto products with lead based paste, and we have had no increase in defects at all. We have used a standard lead paste profile, so we are not altering the temps anything from what's recommended by the paste

First, where the temperatures that aare mentioned in the original post measured? Second, it sounds like the PdAg component terminations are not seeing enough heat [your soldering iron touch-up proves this]. Your 232*C peak is the absolute minimum s
