Phil's a cool guy. I had a few email exchanges with him when I registered for his site a few years ago. I told him up front that my company at the time wasn't planning on spending any money for services and that I was only digging for information.

I agree. Phil is a very respectable guy who knows what he's talking about, and his writings are well-done. I'm sure there are some consultants out there who are less than par, and the profession as a whole has a stigma of just rambling a bunch of m

Just recently installed new machine with Hawkeye 400, the vision system is extremely easy to set up and run. We have only been running but 6 weeks, but I would recommend the system versus the cost of a inline solder paste inspection systems. If you i

We used an Alpha Metals No Clean Solder Paste on our products. However at 50% humidity and above, electric arching starts to appear across our y-cap, when a hi-pot voltage of 1500V is applied across. At 20% humidity this situation does not occur. Als

Cleaning no-clean is the pitts. If cleaning required migrate to water soluble. Can IPC help here? No cleans only need to be removed per IPC if the joint inspection is inhibited...and in general if form-fit-funciton is not achievable. But then th

Step stencils are not widely used, due to: * Higher cost as compared to uniform thickness stencils * Danger of solder paste smearing at least close to the steps * Difficulty of cleaning the stepped stencil underside (the steps cannot be on the upper

I have been using the Loctite Multicore WS200 with great results for the last two years. We also use the lead free version WS300. I like the flux chemistry (which is the same for both products); it really withstands long soaking times and with very g

We have this panel that is Gold Flash. Am I correct in assuming this is technically a lead-free panel then? We are running a WS paste, and the QFN28 has balls of solder instead of a fillet. My Max temp is 216, and the TAL was between 52-57 secs with

Hi, I'm just wondering if someone have more information about board with immersion tin plating. I search in the archive but didn't find anything interesting. We try it, and we have difficulties to make a good solder joint with the wave. And wi
