Your English is fine. Your assessment that corrosion on a portion of the metalization on the end of a component is causing the tombstoning is reasonable. We've seen that before. Corroded components received from a supplier is not acceptable as an

Dear Daniel, I assume that these components are moisture-sensitive. If they have absorbed too much moisture prior to reflow you might be experiencing popcorning. This typically shows up as a bulge over the surface of the die, in the center of the p

Hi everyone I am in the process of reviewing our storage of SMT components. At the moment they are pretty much on open shelves in the factory environment. We endevour to reseal components labled 'moisture sensitive' in their original packaging, bu

Thank you Dave, that is almost the asnswers we use to give to our Customers when auditing they ask for component shelf life. But as you can imagine, they whant to see a quick information right on the label (on Reels, on trays, etc) like: Use b

We consider "IR-reflow soldering profile" to be the supplier's recommended reflow thermal profile that a component temination 'sees' for proper soldering, regardless of the method used to reach that temperature. When you say, "We have a lot of defec

Thanks Rob for your meaningful advice. Instead of just a general average time per component, I think if we have 3 averages, 1 per "component group", we will gain significant accuracy in the cost model. For instance, a motherboard may have 2500+ R and

Hello Henry, I believe some further clarification may be needed for someone to assist. Is the component already soldered prior to reflow? Does the component have paste already applied going through reflow? (or as per my previous question, is it al

I need to install two SMD chips (0805) at one location. I refered to IPC-HDBK-001, fIG 6-24. When I solder the chips side by side, the ceramic side which is placed againgst solder pad- is already touching the solder. While I complete the solder joint
