Hi Sam, I have a feeling that what you're trying to communicate is that your DPAK's are skewing off the pad during reflow. This is caused by a thermal "mismatch" where the solder paste on one side of the DPAK becomes molten before the other, then th

Hi All -- I have read the IPC acceptability requirements of butt-joints, but haven't seen anything on how they're actually performed. I'm assuming we can trim a DIP package, and place the part onto paste immediately before relow (or hand-solder it l

The three basic methods you can use to restore solderability on components are: * Highly active fluxes in a retinning operation. * Surface stripping chemistry and then a standard retinning operation. * Electrochemical conversion chemistry and then a

You have a lot to think about! What does the flux manufacturer recommend as far as specifics like water temp or pressure? Do they recommend high temp di-water a detergent or saponifier? Do you currently have a cleaning machine, batch cleaner or inl
