IMHO I would suggest that if you are using flux only during a BGA placement on a small run, that you first tin the pads with your soldering iron, then level the pads back out with wick. Accomplishes two things; adds a little metal to the joint to ma

Hi, If your using NXT to place these BGA's then you must be doing large runs. BGA's are the most easy part to place, and don't worry about them. Just stencil paste down for them as any other component. But we use 1:1 reduction on our stencil, so we

Hi and thank you for your replies, I feel a lot more confident about tackling the job with your instructions, many thanks. We haven't seen any accuracy issues, and the ballscrew has been making the same banging/knocking noise when changing direction

Advertisements are not always 100% accurate on technical issues. You don't want instand static discharge. A wrist strap with no resistor could cause that. Therefore put in a current limiting resistor to make the charge dissipate slowly. Does anyone

Hi, it is not necessary to store MSDs in nitrogen to stop them absorbing moisture, just a dry environment. Nitrogen storage is good for storing devices for many years as it reduces the oxidation of the solderable surfaces. Best option for storing MSD

Thanks for the suggestions! It ended up being that a wire on the amplifier card in the lower drawer came loose and was making intermittent contact. Tightened all the wires down and the problem has gone away. Now we have a new problem. We had to repla
