Hi brothers, Can anyone give me some clear ideas that which surface finishing is the best for PCBs used for LED TV motherboard production? Some says that OSP is good but it is not good for double sided board. So I am a bit confused in between HASL,O

As an OEM repiar tech I would run into "Black Pad" on occasion, though mostly on surface mount pads. The only way I could remove the oxidation was to apply water soluble flux and add solder, then wick away the excess. This left me with a suitable s

Mile, Please tell me more about your soldering process: - Are soldering process parameters the same for all three pins? - Is unsoldered pin connected to thermal heavy copper polygon? - What is your board surface finish? HASL? - Sn/Pb or LF process?

Hi John - send me an email (david.hillman@collins.com) and I can send you a few photos of what Mike K. was describing in terms of the solder joint surface being "etched" by the cleaning solution. The dull appearance is due to the abundance of lead o

Kevin: We know of no handy approach to developing recipes. * Certainly programs provided by profiler suppliers give you a good first pass, based on your oven and solder paste. * Second pass in developing your recipe comes through trail and error chan
