There is no shortage of reasons to clean your boards. Soldering or reflowing your boards leaves �stuff� on them. This �stuff� is normally corrosive and conductive (some fluxes / pastes are more corrosive / conductive than others). In either case,

Your copper corrosion is not good. It indicates that you have not done a good job in cleaning. [We assume this is a medium green color, not unlike the color of the solder mask on your board, that is almost like a translucent lacquer; rather than th

Hi Ken, Thank you for the reply Ken. I hope I don�t get my behind in trouble for subject change in this thread. But you hit the nail on the head in your comment with Hitachi, when they converted to lead-free they had a �5 times higher defect rate� i

Let�s not get drawn into making more of the amount of training required in order to be able to develop an effective reflow recipe than is necessary. A low-skilled operator with about one hour's training can setup the solder reflow oven. Consider co

Is this a new design or have you manufacted these in the past without a problem. we manufacture ceramic arrays from X7R and COG, X7R has a differnet dialectric strength so higher capacitor values can be achived. With the introduction of RoHS the term

To recap: 1) The machines use laser centering, not mech jaw centering. 2) The X7Rs are scattered on the board, center and edges. Improper de-panelization would favor damaging the parts near the edges of the board; this is not the case. 3) Both ROH

Dear All, We plan to setup an assembly line for our small volume production of PCBs (about couple hundred PCBs per week). The board has about 150 components (less than 30 types) and a few BGA and IC (majority is SMT, only few THT connectors). We hav

I have several boards built at various CM's. We have prototype builds with some JTAG failures on BGA's (1-3 failures with qty 3, 1500 pin BGA's). CM's always claim reflow profiles look good. X-ray does not show bridges and they claim it looks good, b

Rob On your thermal recipe: Above liquidous for nearly 2 minutes seems to be a scoush long. Not sure you're doing anything positive with things like that. On the article: * SMT Magazine, October, 2002, p24 'Q & A: BGA Dewetting' * "Q: Our manufactu
