Amazing in today's technology that people still bake because "that's the way we've alawys done it". Baking is a band aid for poor manufacturing of the PCB. Moisture can become trapped between the layers during buildup. This moisture when it contacts

Hi all, Been thinking about this problem because it's costed us some errors before. For the same type of parts from different vendors, the polarity of parts in the taping may differ from vendor to vendor. (Actually, we find that parts from most ve

Hi, thank you for the idea. I may try solder iron, but it much more slower since I have to solder spacers one by one. a stimpson press is used to press the spacer on the board and the edges of the spacers are rolled. Then we solder the edges to
