The reliability of a Gullwing component solder joint is in question when insufficient solder is evident: *at the heel of the lead *at the toe of the lead *none of the above

Does anyone know the current cost to repair a defective solder joint? I seem to recall a number quoted a few years ago of $1.03 per joint with burden of overhead. I've also seen numbers from 50 cents to 50 dollars per joint.

I need teoretical info for theme "Matted surface vs solder ball". Is it right that some solder pastes decrease solder balling but give matted surface after reflow? That diference between these pastes and others? Are the matted surface worse solder b

HI, I'm doing a dye penetrant and peel test of non-function BGA solder joints to locate the fracture surface. After applying dye, I found the dye ink just accumulate at the solder mask edge and spread everywhere after I peeled off the package. THis i

There are lots of voids at solder joint of chips,the thickness of multilayer pcb is 3.2mm,top side have lots of chip component and bottom side has several BGA and QFPs.For top side profile,the preheat time is about 100s,soak time is about 75s,time ov

Are you using a water soluble paste? Older generations of water soluble paste are notorious for voiding. Some of the new generation water soluble fluxes allow a much wider process window.

More and more pople are seeing voids in solder connections other than BGA balls than ever before. Thats because they never looked [never had the means to look] before. Now, they can't stand it and, like that zit that their mother told them not to m
