i would assume when the PCB planner and customer would specify what "surface layer type"they want but this section is always empty but i have found that out yesterday that we only use ENIG and not FLASH GOLD, which is good to know........ but it see

You might wanna try a small reduction in your stencil aperture. For example, for a 30-mil pad go 26-mil square aperture with 8 to 10-mil radius on your corners. Also, look at your designs. Is there enough resist between your pad and ball? Another

I don't believe I have ever seen a non-destructive test for "Black Pad" that I could take back to a Fab house and collect monetary losses with... But if this test method actually does hold merit then collect away. I would like to know how this metho

Sorry. I actually should clarify those slides. Black pad is not associated with tented vias. Also, you can tent vias with soldermask, but this requires the immersion gold process to be completed prior to soldermask. As such, all copper features (

That would be the lightning effect, with increased humidity reducing resistance. 1500 VDC or 1500 VAC? What is the distance between the edges of the pads - i.e. not the pitch of the component, but the actual physical distance between conductors? A

We have an AUREL CS1222 machine to measure the thickness of the solder paste deposited on a bare board by a stencil printer. This device has a laser beam that has to be put on the pad where you want to measure the solder paste thickness. The measure

Not arguing dan, but are you positive that they are not copper? anyway, what is happening is as the parts sucks down onto the board from reflow the extra paste is notnecessarily sqeezed out but it has no place to go. So it will form this ball on th

It's quite easy: 1. Import the gerber file into GCpowerplace. 2. Select the pads that you wish to convert into centroid's. This is usually all of the pads. 3. Select the automatic extraction button. The software recognizes certain common patterns 02

Since BGA's are sensitive to contamination in the plating process, I always do a simple solderability test whenever we receive a new batch of boards. Take a board from the batch, apply no clean flux on the BGA site, then try to tin the pads with a m
