Do you mean on a drawing of said PCB, or just on the CAD file? If in the CAD file, use a word processor and do a search. On a drawing, There are a number of PCB cad software out there, they should have a search command. if not, you are on your own.

I have always heard to use solder with 2 percent silver to reduce gold embrittlment. One vendor site said this is a myth. Does anyone know of a specific document recommending this such as IPC or MIL spec. ???

I remember reading something about that a while back. The paper said vibration created a higher percentage of voids in solder joints.

I second what Pete said. If you cant afford a new SPM buy a used one. They are around $10K to $15K right now. The resale value on the SPM will also be alot better than on the UP100.

That one is too obvious. Also shows a twinge of irritation. Somewhat too serious. I like my creative answer better. But in the end does it really matter? I just call it "cooked." We cook boards. 'Nuff said.

Hi Guys, I'm after a manual measuring device used to measure the thickness of the solder paste (mainly on fine pitch) after stencil printing. Can anyone provide me some suppliers for the said equipment? regards, dreamsniper

RA and RMA flux residues are "sealed" in a hard, glassy coating that do not require cleaning in many end-use environments. That being said, automotive, automotive underhood, and deep well are in that [ascending] order the three most burtal environme

Well I would think that the heat slug would work to a point. Obviously made to dissipate heat from the component. That said it wouldn't hurt to cover that also with aluminum foil. Your not wrapping a present, your simply tenting the component. IR wil

Well said Grant. Sad thing is people fall for glossy brochures, hype, sales pater & numbers etc. and not actual facts. If you want something that will run 24/7 forever you buy a Fuji, it has the proven pedigree. Pete, don't you sell Mydata's?

Yes to what John said. Especially about finger oil on the bulb or you will replace them often enough to burn out your retina. Thought about using the plaster but never had a big problem with alignment.
