If your flex circuit is only populated on one side, you can have the PCB vendor palletize the flex for you. What you do is have the flex circuit laminated to 062" FR4 using a thermoset adhesive like Dupont WA. Standard flex circuit adhesive. Howev

The company I represent provides electronic manufacturing services. Some of my customers ask that we ship their boards "un-tested". By un-tested I mean we build them, visually inspect them and out they go. I find that on un-tested boards, it's not

Ok, help me out here guys and gals...... I have never understood the concept of scoring on mixed technology or SMT boards. It is quite obvious to me that the potential for SMT solder joint damage through the mechanical stresses of breakout are high.

| Is it feasible to have one type of board carriers to take boards thru 1) glue curing process for first side and 2)invert carriers with boards, and 3)reflowing second side, and 4) do manual stuffing of th components and 5) take them thru selective w

Hello Dan, I have recently started using polyimide, but not for the standard uses. I designed a pallet for holding small, thin (about .0018" thick) RF boards that were being reflowed inside their aluminum housings. They were screwed down to prevent w

Wendy, I've done this before using a machined piece of FR4 material to hold the board (machined like a DEK plate )in place at the press . It ensures that the boards are alway's in the right place and that none of the components are damaged..also sto

| Hi Folks, | This is my first surface mount board, so I asked our assembly house for some tips. They said only passives on the bottom side-preferably no smaller than 0805, 0603 only if I have to. I would think that an SOT-23 would be OK on the botto

John, SOT 23's on the bottom side is no real problem...as long as you get the orientaion to the wave right and you remember to increase the pad sizees to allow the solder to get to the pads. Soldering with only one wave would be trick as Vinesh sugg
