For customized assembly of boards, quantity 1 to ~ at a moments notice, do you have a dedicated cell or do you break into standard production? There is an idea floating around that we should be able to partially build up boards to a standard level

These boards also were above liquidus for 75 seconds, and the customer puts the boards thru extensive thermal shock and stress testing. An Alpha Applications engineer told me that because the boards were above 183 degrees for 65-75 seconds that the i

John, I typically specify no more than three repairs per PWB or assembly. Using the IPC 700/7711/7721 and Circuit Tech's Guidlines for reference. If PWB cost is only couple of $$ then repair may not be worth it (you do not want to make repair, the

Barney, Please tell me who it is that told you this customer cannot get support. Certainly it is not the customer himself. We have been at this customer with top level engineers at the drop of a hat from day one. As for the C7 it is part of the new

Hi Rob, We encountered it on a 6x6mm device, hence, we could consider it as fine pitch. I suppose that it may also have something to do with improvements in the speed of the feeders. Honestly, we don't have that visibility bec our customers do not
