We had one product that used immersion silver plating. There were a couple of instances where we saw tarnishing, and elemental analysis confirmed the presence of sulfur. These boards did have the anti-tarnish sheets between boards, but somehow they

J-STD-001 is your base requirement, but MIL and SPACE have stringent requirements for soldering gold plated terminals, e.g. this typical one: http://xweb.nrl.navy.mil/glast/CALDesign/CDE/CAL%20DPD%20Wire%20Cable%20Soldering%20and%20Staking%20Spec%20

Only use the shop air if it is clean and dry. I know from experience that one can get water and a little oil from the compressor in the air lines. We are in a drier climate with humidity levels in the 25%-35% range on average. All we do is let the

Hi Danny, Are you doing lead free? If yes, I would consider the AE-R330A or SMT-2010 lead free reflow oven. Our reflow oven is affordable and brand new. Just want to make sure what size is your board. Also, all of our equipment comes with one year s

I've just ordered one of these, which appear to be about the cheapest. Widely used for reflowing BGAs on faulty Playstations apparently. I'll report on how well it works once I get it. http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p3907.m570.l1313&_nkw=

T962's have a great reputation for cold spots, non-RoHS capable, and catching on fire. however, one can't argue that they are quite inexpensive! The T200's can be had for ~$2k and are apparently not too bad. See this thread for some first hand accou
