Its my understanding that so long as the paste is not exposed to air it is not going to be active, someone else might be more sure about this than I am. Be ready for lots of half soldered leads using this process. Its quick and easy but will not b

Hi all, I'm would like to try intrusive reflow (pin in paste, paste in hole, etc.) on a connector using WS-609 solder paste (halide free, water-washable). I'm concerned about entrapped flux in the barrel of the solder joints. If there were to be e

For grounding Table Mats/ Floor Mats and workstations, does grounding resistor need special characterstics e.g Wattage, material of construction, etc. We intend to use 1M Ohms resistor. EIA-625 does refer to EOS/ESD-S6.1 standard ( paragraph 7) fo

Which companies would you consider for protective coatings, (conformal coating) and other levels of protection? I am taking a fresh look at alternatives. Know any good tests for testing compatability of coating with flux - aqueous or no clean? SMT

Hi All, I'm looking for companies who sell in-line solder mask applicators capable of dispensing peelable as well as water soluble mask formulations. Could anyone provide me with some names, please. If this is the wrong forum for this question, I d

Hi Sal, I don�t have the solution to your problems but my first thought is warpage. I�ve seen similar things caused by exessive warpage of PCBs 1,6mm thick sometimes and with 0,8mm and T-SOP 50% showed this symptom. Prebaking and a fixture to counte

I have found that if you have a custom carrier with support between pcbs on both SMT reflows (If you palletize) it will eliminate warping. Also Prebaking PCBS with wieght on the top of them helps too. Also look at the cooldown of your oven profile, y

I'm studying electronics at Manchester and I'm building a two station intercom based on an lm386. I have all the components to build it, but could do with some in depth technical imformation to impress my lecturers when I'm explaining how it works. P

We do a lot of prototype work, builds occur days or months apart and moisture Absorption in IC's is a worry. I would like to bake, chuck in some silica gel and then seal or vac seal in an envelope. Does anyone have any experience of vacuum sealing wa
