Thanks for the advice. We have only done one PCB with HMP solder and did not use preheating, but I've been wondering if it would have been helpful since we had some trouble getting the solder to flow. If you have any more specific advice about the te

Enlarging the "End Pads" is normally done to help accomodate the Wave soldering process... works as solder thief to help eliminate bridging on the last 2 pins to cross the wave. It is reasonable to assume that, if you are seeing cold solder due to fl

Dear All, We are doing PCBA's manufacturing,Inprocess we are doing manual soldering, reflow and wave soldering process, As per ISO-7.5.2 Process validation ( Special process ) Soldering process is considered as an special process, hence in order to

You bet. Using a high temperature solder is a perfectly reasonable way the attach thermocouples. Just remember that the solder will not flow on the thermocouple. You need to use a solder iron to lay the solder over thermocouple to hold it in place.

Yes pads are still gold after the wave soldering process even if you wave solder a pcb several times. I have tried soldering using an iron and the solder takes to the pad as you would expect. This happens on all boards of this type and all boards are

Has anyone experienced bridging on topside (solder destination side) surface mount devices after wave soldering? We x-rayed 100% of the placements after smt re-flow with no issues. When the same placements were x-rayed after the tht wave solder pro

To be short, no change in profile is going to get you through this. As I recall the point of hard gold is to retard the wetting process, so no surprise here. For example a connector might have hard gold plating at the mating surface, but not at t

One of our PCB for high reliability application is having 2 BGAs(11X11, ADV 204), The pitch is 1 mm. We decided to wire the BGAs first using re-flow soldering and the rest of the components by hand soldering. Since the PCBs are for high reliability a

We recently had a question come up regarding the amount of solder on a flat underside termination ( we referenced Flat Lug Lead in IPC 610). Judging by the photo you can see on the Left is a target solder joint, but on the right is one which had rewo
