Is there a difference between the Nitrogen cabinet vs Dry cabinet ? How does this helps in creating safe environment for MSD storage. I felt puzzled when my customer rejected me coz' I'm using the Nitrogen cabinet instead of dry cabinet. Except for t

The customer said " The Nitrogen PPM is questionable". LIke what I said, as long as I have met the 10% RH, it should be OK, rite ? thx

Good question. What did your customer say?

Truthfully, there are pro's and con's for both technologies. (put cost of ownership aside for one moment) Nitrogen won't dry humidified components as rapidly as a desiccant dry box. I'm talking about a self regenerating dry box that uses molecular s

On an assembly reflowed in air saw the same thing: 0201's with a grainular solder joint, but 0402's and above with perfectly formed joints. Reflow profile all within acceptable tolerances. Reflowing in nitrogen solves this problem, but increases t

We are increasingly being asked to store components for longer and longer periods which we know through experience leads to reduction or total loss of solderability of the parts. 1) What is the industry accepted shelf life of tin/lead plated compone

This is what I was thinking, but I am being beat up pretty badly by the selective solder. Ambient temperature is anywhere in the the neighborhood of 76 - 80 degrees F. I am not sure of the RH, but I wouldn't think that would be my issue... One of
