To start, i do not know much about this industry. I am an inventor, and designed an electronic device. I am currently building the prototype myself. I need to find out where i can get this product produced. I would need PCB, component assembly, p

My boss just received some info through a design mailing list that he's on claiming that FR406 is not RoHS compliant based on the limited number of processing cycles at RoHS compliant temperatures. I would guess that this is related to the relativel

Our preference has been ENIG. We find that we achieve higher quality (visually) soldering for through hole and surface mount parts, with less handling issues than when we use white-tin, or immersion tin. We are about to do a test on some boards tha

Well, she's been puttin' on a little weight lately, so I thought I was doing her a favor. Actually it really was a safety issue somewhat due to our own ignorance of the AC power requirements of the belt and vibe feeders. New machine to us, and a fe

Origin is New Zealand I believe - which means it has been regionalised to the US and I want it put back to British. "Old" DBA seems to have been put out to grass so I am ignoring that one. My present MRP is FoxPro based - and is being rewritten in

The only sophisticated customer I have is 100% ROHS and actually spec.s material and properties for the fab.'s. The rest have mostly just called in and requested we process ROHS without having to change the drawings or provide a spec. nary a complain

I would love to jump on a program like that, but allocating the resources is hard. I am going to need to put together a proposal on why all of this is going to be useful to people that do not understand. I am having a difficult time just writing up
