Brian, Since the change, I have seen numerous instances of extra zeros being added to numeric values, typically those of 3 (original) characters or more. Case in point, a contribution by our friend Mr. Fish that I have cut and pasted: "The steadfa

Hello, We are having issues to solder components. We investigate the issue and found that the pads were having extra gold on the sides. Is it normal? Can we remove this gold 'bleeding from our PCB?' Thanks

Not exactly normal, I don't think. Though I have seen similar in the CM world. I can't think of a way to remove that overplating, either. If you can't reject the boards outright, then you might be looking at some touch up work, should bridging hap

We are a contract manufacturer and we do business with a big company. There is a mistake in the design of the PCBs they are supplying: the pads are too long (under the component) and sometimes we get short circuit we cannot see. Changing the design w

Go for it!!! You were unspecific, but adding mask to a completed board could cause: * Increased paste thickness, if you have double thickness of solder mask. * Wrinkled and lifted solder mask under the component, if the solderability protection of

Nerdyboy don't write no blanking program. Get two extra carriers of the same size and configuration as the low temperature carrier that you want bake at a higher temperature. One of the these extra carriers needs to be high temperature material that

Anyone who knows how to prevent such flaw? Tombstones are those lifted components from one sides. This results in costly and time-consuming amounts of touch-up and re-work after the assembly is completed. For the customers, this extra work translate

Hi,everybody! There is an interesting things happened with the 0402 components- machine Siemens HF3,it's an Emergency Stop error message " Component not at nozzle before placement" and there is a chance to find an extra components lying in a mess on

In passives I dont know if anything changed at all other than the terminal plating. As for Active components there has been much engineering done to allow for the extra heat needed to liquify say SAC305 or other lead free pastes without damage to th
