Have you tried changing the algorithym type in mark info. to special 1 or 2 ? you will have to perform an F6 on this after you change it. If you were on Normal before then you will want to lower the threshold from the what you have it set at ,probabl

Q1. Is kapton tape an industry accepted way of protecting gold pads from solder splashes? A1. No. It is more accepted to resolve the reason behind the solder splats, so that the added labor and cost of taping is eliminated. Search the fine SMTnet Arc

You weren't specific about the frequency band were you're operating. So, let's pound a couple of stakes in the ground. * Conventional tin-lead plating of 200-300 �m is quite satisfactory for lower frequencies in the range of 2GHz. * At frequencies h

I have recently started to use RMA flux (customer requirement) for some of our projects. I am finding that some of my BGAs are slightly off. Not enough to be rejected but enough to cause concern. In the past I have been able to rely on the surface te

We use SN100C for wave soldering and hand Lead free soldering and have had very good results. The wire cored solder for hand soldering flows good and makes very good solder joints. The SN100C in the wave solder machine also works very good. We use

OK Eric, is difficult answer at distance without examine the PCB..., anyway in my opinion the problem is the PCB quality. There are two possibility : the crack is between solder and nickel or is between nickel and pad copper. In both situation the

What solder are you talking about and what reflow method are you using? High Melt Alloys: SN96 (Sn96/Ag4 or Sn96.5/Ag3.5) - Simliar to SAC305 although normally uses Rosin based flux that can required more extensive cleaning. Pb85 (Pb85/Sb10/Sn5) -
