Below is an email that I copy and pasted from my customer's engineer about his concerns with the issue of the chips not reflowing (which is why I was asking about X-ray the chips to make sure they reflowed): Can you let me know your thoughts on his

you would be best to get this from your paste/solder manufacture. but here are some rules of thumb: -Solder paste out of fridge before use - get out the night before needed.. don't let your op's warm on the oven!! you will regret that! if not over ni

Hey Kyle - Good for you for pushing your horizons and considering pin-in-paste (aka "Intrusive Soldering"). Don't let the nay-sayers out there discourage you. When I encounter mixed tech PCBAs (SMT and through-hole) my first choice, if the design a

Hi John, we had one shot with silver coated PCBs. With "no clean" and no changes in process parameters ( we had no input on necessary changes from the boardhouse ) we encountered wetting problems in the first reflow soldering process. Later it was s

Glenn: I hear you, but when Steve talks about a "dark haze" and "scrap(ing) the �black stuff� off the pads" to make them solderable, but I don�t think of "black pad." I think of "black pad" as a surface coating that typically can not be removed by

Robert: On your balls: Solder suppliers make several "standard balls" and can advise you. On your cleaner: Recycling water / direct to drain? Most batch cleaner suppliers can advise you on recycling and filtering systems to keep you out of troub

We faced terrible void issue while using Sn96.5Ag3.5 solder paste, more than 20% void. We tried adjusting the reflow oven profiles but we did not have much success in reducing the void. Generally, we find quick preheat, high peak temp. and fast cooli

Does anyone know where I can find something in writting on the proper ways to clean a mis-printed board using no-clean solder paste? If not, can any of you tell me what the best way is? Currently, we are running mis-printed boards though the Aqueou

Sal, To answer your first statement; Yes, you can cure paste and reflow solder using one profile. Question on your second statement; Are you talking about running passive side glue, flipping it over, running active side solder, and then putting the

Hey Bud: Moved from that Bi-crap to something serious, eh? Several things: 1 Get in touch with Doug Romm (drom@msg.ti.com) at Texas Instruments. He talks palladium. 2 Review the archives on Palladium. 3 I think you're running light on temps. Eut
