Steve, To clean the RMA processed boards, u hv to make sure u talk to the supplier first, then get the right saponifier and do semi-aqueous cleaning.

OK, without knowing the specifics, why does everyone blame the oven? Most solder balls occur around R's and C's in almost every shop I've been to. The best place to start looking is the screen printer - not the oven. Sure the oven is the last proc

Hello Friends: I'm new in SMT process, I have a problem with little balls of solder beside of the component, I'm tried reducing the apertures in the stencil and making home base, some times the balls desappear, but some time not, and some times

Has anybody heard about solder wires for rework with a V-notch in order to avoid solder balls which might be caused by shooting flux when getting hot. The notch is as deep to reach the core so that the flux can expand easily. I can imagine the effect

David, I've thought about doing this also with no clean boards that were poorly cleaned following a misprint (and subsequently reprinted, populated, and reflowed) but have shyed away because of the potential for damage to components from the ultraso

Wow, what a string of answers and nobody brought up the easiest way to eliminate solder balls. Yes, the paste being squished under the part does reflow and work it's way out to the side during reflow. I did a 5 week study on this (when I was a bori

| From several months I am investigation about the VOIDS PERSENCE and his important as reliability. | One question now is : | It is possible that on the BGA components the voids are already present into the balls, before the mounting on the pcb ? | I

Grant, Newer lead-free fluxes have 6%-10% solids content - more activator, therefore leave more "visible" residues. Old technology tin-lead fluxes got down to as low as around the 4%-6% range (I'm going off memory, so me might be wrong)... You'll

Hi All, One PCBA failed test after went through the Shock Test(Vibration) and suspected to be BGA solder ball crack. We performed dye and pry and found PCB's pad lifted with red mark ink penetrate pad underneath, what does this mean? Can I say the

On over printing, the general issues are: * Paste deposits being so large that when reflowing, collapse onto many, rather than a single solder mass. * Paste expanding during heating and being close to other solder deposits and bridging [as you say].
