60-70% RH will be a challenge if you are running a water wash solder paste (and could be the reason you are seeing the problems). If you are running a no-clean, humidity should not be an issue. As long as the profile looks OK, I don't think the con

Hi, sorry for reopening a old thread, but i wanted to ask if there is a way to know at what temperature the solder melts if you have a chip with underfill? I thnk its lower then normal air-fill temperature since the underfill conducts heat better the

Just reading these comments are really interesting but very baffling. That if the solder manufacturers produces solder which 'is' actually Virgin high quality material and treated with conventional metallic anti drossing agents AND continue to add th

| Hi all, | | I thought I'd use this forum to ask a couple general questions on fluxes for manual operations: | First - Is it OK to use a wave soldering type flux (specifically OA)? Thinking about activation temperatures and the ramp rate of the wav

It is my understanding that per IPC specs toe fillets are not required as they do not add any strength to a solder connection. Our thoughts were allways that proper toe fillets are a sign of a good process. What are some of your guidelines and though

When we try another test by using less solder paste, we found under the microscope that the solder was actually stick on the LED gold surface, but not having good wetting. By this finding, we can basically conclude that it was poor solderability caus

We are starting to see issues with using Kester WS R562 with lead free components. The joints look grainy on almost all of the 0402'2 and other small components. Some of the solder does not solder to the terminations. These are hybrid boards which

It's a excellent idea to monitor the cleanliness of your components and soldering process. Consider running a spare board.
