Ron, The simplest way to process fexible PCB's that I have found is to use a process carrier fixture. There are companies that manufacture process carriers that are capable of holding flex through stencil, placement and reflow. The carriers are capab

Ron: Chris is correct that there is a bunch of fixture fabricators that make good products that will serve your purpose. Other fixture fabricators can be found in the archives. Problems with these fixtures are: 1 Out-rageously expensive 2 Very lo

This issue is not "testability of OSP board". It is "testability of nc flux residue". Kester [or some other flux suppler] can probably recommend a flux residue that is more probeable. We have talked about the problems with probes getting gummed-up

Anyone knows why BGA fell off sometimes from the board? I was running in a single sided only. I encountered a BGA falling off from the pcb pad. The pcb is ENIG and lead free process. The pads had no solder and didn't looks like having a black pad thr

How many fell off out of your entire lot? What was the soldering quality like on the ones that didn't fall off (xray, visual)? You need to determine if its a random problem or if even the ones that stayed on are barely on and go from there. If the o

You can go with smaller chip parts (0805 to 0603 or smaller). What size is D1? Can you go to a smaller package. Provide more details. You may not have the real estate to include the silksreen (i.e. reference designators). Consider omitting them.

If your flex circuit is only populated on one side, you can have the PCB vendor palletize the flex for you. What you do is have the flex circuit laminated to 062" FR4 using a thermoset adhesive like Dupont WA. Standard flex circuit adhesive. Howev

Maybe. While it doesn't help with your current problem, there is nothing that says that you cannot impose requirements in your purchase order that are stricter than D-300.

While they're '50 pitch', you need to think of 0402 as fine pitch parts. So, ENIG, imm silver, and imm tin finishes and probably OSP would be good choices. Stay away from HASL.
