QFN assembled on a PCB indicates paramteric fails when tested. When the QFN on PCB is reflowed a second time, it recovers and passes testing. Visual, X-ray inspection revealed no anomalies. Cross-section images of solder joint revealed no anomalies (

Thanks all! I'm facing this issue with one specific batch of QFNs. It could be a plating issue. But, nothing was evident from visual inspection,No sign of voiding or non-wetting. Cross-section images of solder joints were clean as well. Could this s

Here's an interesting fact, some pastes just don't wet as well as others!.. there I've said it and now people will complain but that's life. Some pastes are formulated to run in air, some in N2, soem are specifically designed to be more aggressive fo

Dback, Current method is by using dispenser machine to dispense the glue at PCB. This non-wetting is randomly and not repeating to the same location. My adhesive height is 0.01" to 0.035". Is this will cause the component to had a gap between the t

We've had multiple issues with non-wetting components. You say only one part is not wetting? Profile won't be the culprit, if so you would have more part issues. We've used SnPb with lead-free parts for some time now, no issues. The issues we had

Has anyone had success in soldering these devices, in particular devices from a company callede Pycomp. They are 8 way 0402 sized terminations. I have experemented with the printing process, placement verification & reflow profile. Unfortuanlty, I am
