| We are changing from through-hole to SMT, wondering what pitch requirements would an 8 pin SOAC require for pick and place? We think that this would be our finest pitch part. | John: Never heard of an "SOAC." SO packages are 50 ptch (50 mil, 1

I have a recent design (1 component side only) that calls for 2 surface mounted antenna's (brass plated) to be mounted on a PCB. The problem arises when the PCB is 18x11.25 and has 15 to 20 PCB's in the pallet (IE weight, fixturing to hold the anten

We use NC flux exclusively for SMT and wave soldering. And it is a fairly old formula from Multicore, though we are currently qualifying a new formula. The automated soldering does not appear to be a problem. It is only the hand soldering that causes

Our design group is looking at using a IMPCB material for a power amplifier design. They would like to to use this because of it's excellent thermal properties. This would be used to create a "SIP" module that would plug into a std FR4 pcb with the c

The problem that my exec. had was that he did not want to add too many people to the department because there is no telling how long the demand will stay high. Therefore, I decided just to add a PCB inspector between the Pick and Place machines and
