| I get white residue on my PCBs after vapor degreasing. No comments on the vapor degreaser. Yes, I still use one of these. I use a vapor degreaser and a 1,1,1 replacement solvent due to the quick clean and quick dry times. Anyway, I only get whi

I need advice on a pad design which several other engineers whom I work with would like to try. I think it is an utterly crazy but I can't seem to convince them differently. My current 0402 chip pad sizes on alumina and FR4 substrates are .022"X.

| What are the factors that go into determining PCB Board temperature requirements for the Wavesolder process? Most of the recipes I've seen call for preheating the PCB to around 230F - 250F. This temp is about 210F - 230F below the typical solder te

All SM machines pick components with a vacuum nozzle. Most likely the component is picked in the geometric center, which may not be the center of gravity ( SOT 23, SO 89 ). Any other pick position than the center may be taught upon requirement, but y
