I'm not saying that an eraser will necessarily work. What I'm saying is that some erasers may cause more trouble than the eliminate. Look here http://aic.stanford.edu/jaic/articles/jaic28-02-003_2.html We prefer a brand called Ruby Red. The "ole

Hi there There are a number of things worth considering when viewing bga's. Firstly, like any other solder joint that you have been inspecting for years, suface finish is critical. Secondly, and again like other joints shape is important. Now it may

I have done both. If you have a line that runs both sides in none pass, running the adhesive side first allows you to have one less machine or station for board flipping. If you have to move the board from one line to another, or back to the front

An adhesive, is an adhesive, is an adhesive. Yes most will thin when exposed to elevated temperature, but that's only for a short time. As cross-linking starts, viscosity increases. Having made countless numbers of adhesively bonded samples in the

What does the reflow profile look like , the question I had was surrounding the higher reflow temperature and the max temperature that lowest thermal mass components will see. Some other questions that I had were surrounding the components , what of

Hi Kelvin, Regarding to the surface finish of the leads, Sn or Pd may be the direction that the industry takes. First of all, the answer must be "Pb-Free", limiting our choices. Sn has good solderability, and it won't have too great of an impact o

BGA defects observed with x-ray inspection fall into catagories. One catagory is the obvious defects; i.e. soledr bridges, missing balls, excessive solder voids. The second catagory is the more subtle "potential" defect. This is where variations in
