Steve, Depending on the type of equipment you are using for P&P you may want to consider placing and processing the substrates in Auer boats. I have provided many applications for ceramic substarate users using purchased Auer boats or machined palle

I don't see anything in IPC-6012A specifically about stretch. Maybe paragraph 3.4 (Board Dimensional Requirements) applies, which tells me I need my own drawing note. Crafting this note could be tricky, and I was hoping that someone has already tac

TA, is there somebody out there who can bring on the right track according adequate materials for long term storage of assembled boards (at least 10 years)? It�s for spare parts for future service exchange. The units should be stored seperately and

Have you considered vacuum package in ESD bags, just like the way the IC's are packaged? What about conformal coating for the units being stored? 10 years is a long time for End of Service life of a product. You may need to get accelerated life testi

Some of our other divisions have had to do epoxy underfill with BGA devices to obtain adequate reliability for aerospace applications. Are there any special layout considerations required to ensure that we can do underfill if we deem it necessary du

We never underfill BGA, but then again our products are not blasted into space. Certainly you need to provide enough room for the dispense head to move around the component in the pattern appropriate for the underfill you plan to use. Probably more

You made the statement "The rest of the board we use them on looks great..." My question is, what's the difference between the assemblies? Mass? Solder? Oven? Are the boards the same thickness, are other parts causing heat sinking, etc. The reflow m

Depending on how old your through hole equipment is it should be SMEMA compatible. A copy of the SMEMA wiring diagram and protocalls can be down loaded from the IPC web site Under downloadable Doccuments SMEMA Standards. SMEMA : http://www.ipc.org/ht

Are you saying that the sensor is mounted onto the output conveyor of the glue machine and wired into the Onserter? If so ( weird, because the glue machine should have a SMEMA interface ), than you could mount the sensor on the input conveyor of the

Hi, I understand that solder joint shape and strentgth is dictated by land dimension / geometries. i have a pcb with 4-5 different land dimensions. My queries are: a) since all of them were tested, what will be the effect if I leave it that way whi
