Hello, Can I please get some help on finding formulas for calculation of surface mount pad sizes for stencil design and solder paste deposition. I've recently joined a company who has allowed their stencil supplier to develop the stencils based upon

It sure would be nice to have some sort of group out there to exchange ideas. I have designed quite a few options that I use for quick change overs on my 5 Amistar Big Body lines. They work quite well and I am willing to share any ideas. My compan

Do I really need a Vapour Phase Oven or a Nitrogen Oven when soldering PBGA's if my PCB has only 2 to 3 BGA's (ball pitch of 0.5mm to 1.27mm) ? Is the quality of soldering when using an 8-Zone Convective Oven is not acceptable? I have been bombarded

Can anyone help? Our Solder bar suppier is discontinuing the Sn63 Pb37 solder that they currently supply us. Another company has offered us a 'direct replacement' which is their own Sn63 Pb37 solder bar. The only problem I have with this is that the

I am having the same luck as you. Been out of work since early November 2001. Best luck I have had is Monster.com, and remember that a LOT of companies are going through Temp. Agencies. I've run in to situations, a handfull of times where the employ

What Claude said rings alot of truth. I feel we (the cunsumer) has caused this problem. We want everything cheaper, one trip to your electronics superstore will prove that. The products that are still here are the new designs or even prototypes. So
