Outside the MSD issues stated already (and I cannot provide a exact time not knowing multiple factors like Humidity levels, temps, exposure times, etc...) OSP might be the very worst finish to use in this scenario of side 1 / store on a shelf / side

HOW THICK IS THE BOARD? IS THERE A LOT OF COPPER IN THE BOARD? DOES YOUR CUSTOMERS PROVIDE HEAT RELIEF IN THE BOARDS BARREL DESIGN THERE NEEDS TO BE PLENTY OF ROOM FOR LEADFREE SOLDER TO FLOW, DID YOU CHECK YOUR PIN(LEAD)TO HOLE (BARREL) RATIO? N

Has anyone else been experiencing this lately? We have had a rash of boards that come in properly vacuum sealed. We store them in the hot room until we are ready to build, and we get bubbles under the solder mask. We've had 4 different jobs, all di

Hello: 1. Yes, it is necessary to reball a PBGA after removal from the board. Once the part has been removed, the quantity of solder on the balls is out of control. This condition will not only result in an unacceptable variation in solder quantity

We are a small company, reletivly new to doing our own SMT (1 year) and we are having an issue, I think. We manufacture many board with no problems, but we have one that constently defeats us. This particular PCB has ENIG finish, and we have had th

We are having the exact same problem! We do about 6 or so ROHS SMT builds. 5 are fine now but we had problems with most initially and 1 is trouble still. All boards are same material, same PCB manufacturer. Initially, when the delam. problem occu

Anyone have experience wave soldering rigid flex assemblies? I've just picked up a new job from a customer; it's a rebuild for the company, but new to me. The customer had previously taken their business elsewhere due to delamination problems with

Dear Steven: Often the recommendations for baking prior to assembly are derived from various J-stds. But J's currently concern baking moisture out of components, and fail to address the moisture issues of the PCB. Because of that, there is the IPC D

Hi MGL, Couple things to ask, have the boards recently been changed to Rohs builds? STD FR4 to High TD Laminate. Check the stack-up the board houses are using. Just about all Rohs laminate has Resin starvation issues when used in single ply co

Assuming that you have a saturated moisture-sensitive component: At what temperature would popcorning or internal component damage occur? I would guess that it would be at a temperature where water would boil, around 100 degrees? However, the JEDEC J
