| Here is what I would do faced with your problem. First I would profile a similar board or use an existing profile. From there I would place the dummy device on the surface of a sample board with a thin thermocouple soldered to the board surface und

Use caution if epoxy is dispensed under the PLCC 84. If the "SMT Gods" look unfavorably onto you rework will be difficult. I had a ceramic PLCC 84 which weighed 15 grams (MCM) and due to packaging failures (glass seal to metal cover) rework was the

Are you using a HASL board or an organic protection on the pads? This will help determine as to whether paste is necessary or just a very active/tacky flux should be used. Tight process control will also help in the reflow oven. Many users don't wan

David, There was a thread going on the IPC TechNet about exactly the same thing... The ratio that was posted is: Less than, or equal to 30-grams per square inch Which means if you weighed a part and it is 30-grams, you'll need .033" of surf

Happy Friday All! Well, it seems another "opportunity" has presented itself to me. Looking to assemble a 24" X 24", 52-layer board... piece-o-cake, right? Not real sure of all the components that are on it, but I do know that there is some 20-mil
