Dear All, I have OSP finsh pcb on my production, the pcb thickness is 1.5mm and the product is one sideded pcba. After reflow process, Is there any specific time frame defined for smt completed OSP finish pcba before going for wave soldering proce

We expect to see a copper shadow along the edge of pads when soldering boards with organic solderability protection [OSP]. IPC-A-610 has defined this as acceptable for years. During early reflow stages, the flux in paste dissolves the OSP where ther

Which is the best surface finish to be used on non- solder mask defined pads in terms of cost and reliability? What are the advantages and disadvantages of the various surface finishes such as Ni/Au , Cu OSP , Ni /Pd and HASL.

Hi Shooter, we're not using AOI but we do every 30 minutes sampling Inspection on the board and we're not seeing insufficient paste deposit so far since we started. But I agree with you that seemed my printer is not printing consistent amount of pa

| Has there anyone bold enough to try this in their shops? My cubemate just got through telling me that at his last shop, they had bare copper boards (no HASL, no OSP, no nothing), with minimal solderability problems. | Is your cubemate the same gu

Glenn, There are both very good VOC-Free fluxes as well as alcohol based fluxes out there. This should be your primary focus if you are so lucky as to have to opportunity to actually select a flux! The use of nitrogen will benefit any no-clean pro

| Has anyone had any experience or data using vibration during the reflow process. | We introduced a vibration device attached to the fixed rail on a Vitronics reflow oven. The reason was to prevent skewing on large PLCC devices. The process worked v
