Siemens is the General Electric of Europe. Like GE, Siemens typically is in the top 3 positions ($ market share and profit) or they exit the business. In total revenue I expect Siemens to be in the top 2-3 globally. In units I expect Yamaha has the

SMTNetters, I have a product coming down the pipeline that we'd like to make pure double sided reflow, it'll be RoHS product, and the hope is... we'll be able to solder the thru-hole stuff by screen printing solder paste and reflow soldering. Anybo

Successful solder paste overprint is a function of the solder paste rheology, solder mask and through hole component stand off. * Solder mask with a high surface energy will permit a larger overprint than a solder mask with a lower surface energy. In

It's worse than just using the test equipment manufacturer guidelines. Along with that, you have to deal with each of the test fixture fabricators' preferences as well. What this boils down to is a negotiation with the test engineering group as to w

I need advices as to how a gap between the bottom of an LED (1209-package) and the PCB can be controlled on a small rigid-flex PCBA? The problem that we experience is due to tight tolerance in the design of our molded housing in which this PCBA is as
