I have done experiments on small runs, with a few connectors and have had favorable results, I had apertures (oversized)made for the thru-hole connectors on our SMT stencil and hand inserted the connectors.. A few insufficient solders here and there

Hi everyone. I am now faced with a problem on soldering PBGA. At first, I ran the board (FR4, 7" X 10" with 12 layer) at Peak Temp: 205 C and 54 seconds above 183 C. After reflow, I found several cold solder joints and one ball without second collaps

Steve, Dason has valid points here. dun listen to what supplier's say about paste lying on the PCB pads able to be exposed at ambient temperatures for 8-24 hrs? that will never get approval for Class-3 type of customer auditors. (Would any serious

Is that 5 top and 5 bottom zones? We use a 4 zone and a 3/4 zone oven for BGAs and have success. I don't believe that the amount of zones is the issue but what type of profile you can get out of them. I will admit that the large ovens are much eas

Hi there. We have had an out of control reflow oven that has allowed its temperature to fluctuate by up to +/- 20 deg C from set point in very short periods of time. We found the root cause of the problem and fixed it, but by then we had already run

Hi all How can I find the technical paper or source of information about using No-clean flux with high frequency apllication. High frequency mean more than 2 GHz - 5 GHz. I heard from my colleague that No-clean flux residue on board effect to high

Questions are: * What is this green material? * What does the green material look like? * What the impact of this material on the long-term reliability of your customer�s product? * What flux did you use to solder these boards? * How were the boards

So, why can't you clean misprints on Entek boards? Entek: Cheap, flat, OK shelf life, not without process and fabrication issues. Your Entek organic solderability protection is probably Entek Plus [CU106A] made by Ethone OMI. Consider getting a co

Your board fabricator can tell you how they want you to specify boards that do not have solder on the fiducals on the rails. They probably do not need some BIG stinking drawing change, but can operate from a letter. [And even if you run the change

Comments on copper plate temperature monitoring are: * Some people use this type of temperature monitoring to start the day as an element of an oven capability measurement and monitoring program. * Using a copper or other metal plate, like aluminum,
