It will be tough to find a dimensional thickness specification for HASL. IPC-6012 Table 3-2, line "Fused tin-lead or solder coat - Coverage and Solderable" states the requirement that there has to be complete coverage of solder on the land, and it mu

How do you normally solder it?

Can anyone help me with the pros and cons of trying to wave solder tantalum and large (1812) ceramic capacitors. I do know that one may see fractures on larger cermaic caps, but have not seen much on the tantalums. Any insight as to what problems I c

It is normal recommended by the paste supplier. Indium paste claim that it can worked on high temp/RH area. Also, check Aim solder web site and they have a good solder paste handling guideline. Internally, we control our environment not exceed 27C

I saw in a presentation that military testing of lead-free soldering for reliability has not gone well. Basically, unlike commercial applications where the alloys performed better they did worse when under the more extreme military and aerospace con

Michael We know you're just trying to have fun by getting us to respond. Going along with the game, if your solder is more expensive, requires more energy to melt, produces less reliable solder connectiuons, and is worse for the environment; how to

Both conditions are acceptable for this bottom brazed flat pack package. The solder coverage must be within 0.070 inch of the lead/package interface per MIL-PRF-38535, paragraph A3.5.6.3.4.a. While that requirement could allow for a gold gap near t

| We will wave solder a board with SOIC14 and SOIC16 parts on the bottom. It has been difficult to find any specific wave solder process recommendations from manufacturers of the SOICs. The pad geometry utilizes theiving pads on both sides to reduce

You are on the right track Ismir. Essentially however, as the programmer of the machine, I am the one that creates the PCB with the errors to benchmark the settings for the machine. No secret lab though! :-) Easy enough for most any AOI machine to
