On mixed technology PCBs, we find numerous blow holes on the solder joints of radial parts (electrolytics, LEDs, etc). The solution that works so far is to cut the leads very long in the radial inserter so that the part is kinda loose and the air in

We build a mixed tech [eg, QFP, SMT fly shit, DIP] board where we can't clinch the DIP. So we set the clinch and cut on the DIP to just barely clinch, leaving the leads very perpendicular to the board. I wonder if you could do something similar wit

Gentlemen, I too have been atacked by that "soldering to gold" and will add my 2 cents. I also had parts that would pop off the board when the fillet looked perfect. After lots of pain, experimentation, and sleepless nights, I solved it through a

What does your customer want you to do? I would not want a CM soldering one of my boards with leadfree paste if I didn't ask him to. Whatever you do, get approval first. Two things to consider: If the other components are not rated for leadfree tem

Hi The answer in general is no mixing of Lead Free with Sn/Pb solder. If you look at reliability data, failures after stress tests and then SEMs, failures occur at grain boundaries inside the joint. Lots more happens. By the way this mixing happe

I am not aware of any such info so you may not get any replys on this but each of these systems is totally different. There is usually not much overlap of what is the right choice for an application. The solder bath machines with fixtures are for hig

Well, for some reason the board house will pay for the boards but has some issue with paying for the parts on them. Why am I not supprised? Perhaps I have mis-diagnosed the problem. We have found two different board p/n's with the same type of defec
