We had a build that showed a relatively high occurence of BGA voids like you were seeing. It was a very small volume first article that took a long time to get through the line so the paste sat on the boards too long. As we ramped up TACT time in p

Hi Jose, such a process is possible, but you need to confirm that the PCB material has high Tg. In additon, you need to re-look solder paste printing parameters and make required changes in stencil apperture design for optimum solder volume. Just a

Assuming you're using DOM and shelf life to determine what's good and what's not, you just have to know 1)the rate at which you use it up, 2) how much shelf life is left, and 3) the rate that it goes bad when not refrigerated. From that you can tel

Start with targets based on the stencil thickness (for height) and stencil thickness times the aperture size (for volume). * Set reasonable upper and lower control limits (+ 25% and –25 % of the targets, for example). * Next, check the printer set-u

I discovered that we have some gold plated (30 mico in.) through hole connectors which were Paste In Hole soldered (60 sec at reflow) on a HASL PCB. Do we have an embrittlement reliability issue? The calculated volume % of gold in the joints is about

This is one of the most common questions I get asked. Why clean no-clean flux. It was stated earlier that no-clean residues are benign. This may or may not be accurate. It depends on several factors including the reflow process. In a perfect world, t

Hi experts, Is it normal that a stencil of 0,1mm would produce 45% solder paste volume being printed over the board? Or is a property linked to the solder paste? thanks in advance

Usually this is caused by too much solder mask.
