Who is this, another Dave F ? For me there�s no problem with balling and beading. I know that the boards I have with the new paste do have all what�s needed for balling and beading, just one of the oldest designs with a stencil ...., oh boy, didn�t

Dave, Ashok mentioned that the end termination of the component were dull and grey. I have had similar problems with Murata components exibiting the same characteristics on the end terminations. As it turns out, they have some exotic plating material

Dave: You're probably correct about too much paste, given that your balling is congrigated near the center of the chips. Three things to consider: 1 Lower temperature profile @ front 3 zones 2 I've heard some stencil suppliers can plate addition

Outstanding advice gentlemen! To borrow Dave F's line "I'd like to take a bit of a different angle." Ie. a few wave solder specific issues If this assembly is going over wave solder then avoid vias under passive components, it invites solder bal

| CEERIS has been sending me flyers for some time, touting the value of their various studies and insights gained from digesting the facts contained within. The topics are indeed of great interest. My question is to whomever of you has purchased one

| Dave, | i tried reflowing bare boards with only solder printed on em and no component placed. we still got voids as same as when components were placed. so atleast one of that theories(voids due to component/component placement)could be considered
