wrinkles solder joints after double reflow

Electronics Forum | Mon Mar 22 19:46:17 EST 2004 | pdeuel

The bottom side is going into reflow somewhare near melting point of solder. Reduce bottom side temprature. Get a good mole so ramp and soak tempratures can be checked on bolth sides of the PCB. The object is to keep bottom side parts from approching

Hi, Thanks for the ideas. With the solder mask curing problems, can you normally wipe off the white residue, as we can do this on our boards with our fingers. It's almost like the surface of the board has a "wet dried up" look to it, and it's a smok

buying guide for used double wave solder and ICT machine

We are trying to buy used double wave solder and ICT machine and we need some advice on selecting the machine and things to be cautious with. It will be greatly appreciated if someone can offer us good suggestions that will help us to minimise mist

Heat guns scare me, hot air scares me too. Just the heck of it why not apply high temp paste to the center and eutectic 63/37 standard solder to the outside pads. The outside reflows first allowing proper seating of the component and with a proper pr

I have experience in this. My company offers Lead free SMT and Wave soldering. I have processed ImSn, ImAg, Enig, OSP in both smt and wave. Yes, silver leaching will occur. Yes, copper leaching will occur. High tin content solders disolve everyt

I would have gone to a .004" stencil but again, the board designers, which we have no control over or are we allowed to give input to, have made the pads on all connectors and many other parts so small that we are almost seeing insuffecient solder us

Sn corrosion effects were studied for stainless steels, coated stainless steels, titanium, cast iron, and other materials. This study can be found in the SMT Library under "Equipment Impacts of Lead-Free Soldering" Electrovert uses a Melonite coating

Can anyone recommend a reflow profile for already flowed solder?

Electronics Forum | Wed Apr 21 19:59:43 EDT 2004 | Ken

It makes no difference if the solder is in balls, ingots, bars, paste etc. The thermal profile satisfies key areas of the reflow process as a function of your flux and alloy type. Peak and duration above liquiduous are a function of the alloy. pr

You can find the procedures for different package types in the IPC-7711 & 7721 manuals. These can be purchased from the IPC.[http://www.ipc.org/] You can also try Circuit Technology: http://www.circuittechctr.com/guides/guides.shtml These manuals and

Solder Paste to Device (BGA) or PCB

Electronics Forum | Tue May 04 14:27:32 EDT 2004 | michasm2

Both are acceptable methods. - Printing on the board may give your operators a better ability to catch insufficient solder due to poor release; however if done right, printing directly onto the BGA ball is much more efficient and eliminates any compo
