LCD display defects - Industry standard?

Electronics Forum | Mon Apr 21 08:53:22 EDT 2008 | realchunks

I don't know of any standard, but do know most suppliers will sell you sub-par displays. Inner layer cracking is usually the biggest defect due to handling. We had our supplier in and they showed us what to look for under magnification @400 times.

surface mount connector, disturbed solder

Electronics Forum | Mon Apr 21 10:59:39 EDT 2008 | davef

That you have 'grainy' solder only at the ends of the connector and not at all solder connections indicates that your quality types are on track and are pointing you in a direction worthy of investigation and developing a better understanding of the

Super Mole Thinline RS232 Cable

Electronics Forum | Mon Apr 21 23:08:03 EDT 2008 | dman97

Hi, Does anyone know what kind of cable the thinline profiler uses? I recently acquired one of these profilers, but it came with no cables. I went out and bought a female to female serial cable, but it did not work. It will not communicate with my P

If you know a little about electronics, you can probably figure it out. Or just buy one from Mole. Do you have software? More than likely you will have receive, ground, and transmit. Open up the Mole if you can and look for the RS232 chips(Max232

0.5mm CSP Reliability

Electronics Forum | Wed Apr 23 21:34:24 EDT 2008 | fowlerchang

It is CSP reliability issue, which is the mobile CPU from Spreadtrum. All the tests passed and shipped to customer. They assembly them and tested but failed. After they reflow this CSP with hot air gun, some of the boards passed. We got some board

Aqueous Cleaning PCB's with Potentiometers

THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY GUYS... more background... solder paste is Water Soluble. We mask the potentiometers prior to aqeous washing using solder mask, then our operator brush the solder joints with IPA after the Wash Process...I'm concerned about th

Removing Markings from Devices

Electronics Forum | Wed Apr 30 10:43:28 EDT 2008 | dyoungquist

This runs up a big caution flag in my mind! Counterfiet parts are often produced by removing the original markings and remarking the ICs with different part and lot numbers. I am not accusing you of this BUT we have recently been bit by counterfei

Removing Markings from Devices

Electronics Forum | Mon May 05 19:45:39 EDT 2008 | hegemon

Yep, many of us have seen this firsthand. I had a customer who fouled up a job, then "found" a deal on some (10) very expensive Xylinx parts, and badly needed these parts to complete the job. Everything looked good afterwards, but nothing worked. X

Leaded and Lead Free BGA's on hte same board

Electronics Forum | Wed Apr 30 12:26:10 EDT 2008 | dphilbrick

There must be discussions about this on SMTnet but I have yet to find them. I would like to hear from all you smart people about running LF and PB BGA�s on the same board using 63/37 solder. If you run your profile up to peak at around 225C +/- (nitr

RF shield clips

Electronics Forum | Thu May 01 08:35:11 EDT 2008 | cyber_wolf

We are having issues with these parts tilting to one side during reflow. Of course when they are tilted, they have to be reworked because the shield won't fit on. Changing board design and part design is not an option.... I think there are 2 reasons
