Hi, I am a graduating student looking for information on building my own business in the electronics industry and am looking for a gap in this market. Could you help me with the following issues, what are the main implications in changing an assemb

We are looking to buy a insertion line TDK AC-7 Axial machine and a VC-7AT Radial machine. I am curious if there are any software out there that can program the machines. Spoke with Aegis and circuitcam and they told me they do not have any software

We are sometimes, not always, seeing very large voids in the solder joints of BGA's with Via in Pad. Some lots of PCB will have the voids and other lots of boards will not. I feel the via's are outgassing during reflow, due to the PCB not having been

Threre has been speculation as to voiding as a function of solder paste liquiduous vs. ball liquiduous. Gas entrapment is thought to result if one melts before the other (I forget which order). Two profiles may yield different results as determined

Can you share some information on the hazardous materials and cleaning details for your manufacturing processes, please ? These are the questions I need to ask you: 1. Do you use brominated fire retardant in PWB material? If not, what other type

I have actually printed this same condition with type 3 paste Alpha WS709. I posted this for discussion and cannot remember what I called it. We did need to clean the stencil after every three prints. I did not check volume on these locations but

Hi there, We place FBGA packages on a lot of our memory modules. Our stencils have .013" square apertures and a .005" foil thickness. We are using a type 4 paste from Senju Comtek. The price difference is not that significant and readily available

"Thanks for all your informative replies. I do know that Motorola is using a No Clean Eutectic Solder for their BGA's. We are in Aerospace and is using a Water Soluble Paste Flux." This statement is confusing me (not to difficult at my time of life)

Does anybody have any experience with PSA 2668 high shear cover tape on Fuji QP242s/QP351s feeders? Does it perform comparable to PSA 2666? We are looking to implement PSA 2668 due to some cover tape 'pop-off' issues with our Siemens HF machine, bu

What do you mean the solder must "survive" 260C? What is your target temperature? Is it dictated by a component, the substrate or the solder alloy? Do you require a eutectic alloy? If not, the selection of alloys grows. (these are from memory...n
