David Fish alerted me to this dialogue, after visiting my web site. I am one of the "anal" consultants that are trying to help people "learn from things that go wrong." I don't know where to start. Perhaps by asking you not to lump all of us toget

Hi, my guys did such solder paste deposits on PCB bareboards before, (before my physical join with my current company), approximately 2-3 years ago, for a small Lot run. What the PCB supplier did was to apply "block" shaped Sn/Pb paste alloy onto t

I am not in your area to provide physical assistance, but I'm full of advice. Keep in mind you get what you pay for. One thing you can do is what you have done here, watch this forum and others like it. You will see where the short comings are. Obvio

I studied in the UK, so I am not sure about the US educational system. My mate studied at the Illinois Institute of Technology and he is a much smarter than me so I guess you Yanks are doing something right! ;-) I agree mostly with davef. Theory

I assume since you talk about adjusting the locking pin and changing tooling you believe the part is not being held down with enough force while being reflowed. Is this because the insufficent and open solder you mentioned is the lead sitting on top

Hi Russ, there�s something I don�t understand about the measures you took. I guess that TAL means time above liquidous and shortening of that time can result in bad dissolution of the protective Au-layer. The necessary time for the Au to mix with you

| | To aid in heat dissipation of our PCB, we would like to try having copper fill areas on the board that are hot air levelled and not covered with solder resist. Then, when the board is reflowed, solder paste would be applied and then solder. Has a

| Does anybody put QFP's on the backsides of boards? Can they be reflowed without falling off? Do you use adhesive? | I use a double sided reflow process all day, everyday. I've hung QFP240s with embedded heat sinks and they don't fall off. Yei
