Hi Kurt, I agree with Dave F. I had exact same problem with PBGA placement. We requested our PCB vendor to plug/tent via (button printing) after HASL with SR1000 which worked well in the long run. There are couple of failure modes associated wit

I am looking for a Masking tape for Gold fingers on a PCB . It should not leave any residue on reflow soldering ( 220 deg c). Currently, I am using Kapton tape with Silicon adhesive. It is leaving minute quantities of residue? The fingers are al

Please check Circuit Assembly March 1998, article "Solder balls and aperture shapes" and August 1999 "Guiding stencil design". They can be contacted at www.circuitassembly.com The main cause of mid chip solder balls is the volume of paste that is p

I have a proto-type PCB with a 48-Pin Fine Pitch TSOP (0.5mm pitch) with a dimension of 19mm L x 11.50mm W x 1.10 Thickness. They are at the bottomside of the PCB and I need to wave solder the board. There are 8 of them at the bottom side. Are they o

I agreed with PeteC to use the selective wave pallet, please aware TSSOP is classify as MSL 3. The advantage of the surface mounting allow both package body size and thickness to decrease but also increase the density of the package. Direct heating

Hi Dave, I think your approach is more than some others do as incoming inspection. We just look for - damage of any kind - measure the thickness - measure a critical aperture for the correct size (reduction) - look for smooth walls - do Earls "look

I'm looking for what I call Mylar, for lack of a better name. We used it at Digital/Compaq to help us knead paste and also to check alignment of prints without actually applying any paste to the module. It was about 4-5 mils thick, clear and came in

There is a variation on the pins that come through on the other side. The pins that are deforming are roughly half the size of those which aren't deformed.There are no witness marks on the pins that are deformed, suggesting that the pins aren't fouli

Here are some: Printing Speed : 2.5 ips (inch per sec) Stencil Thickness: 10 - 12 mil but the latter is the best. Dots sizes: u can get that from the Forum Archive...I used Dave F's dot sizes recommendation...they are good! Squeegee Blade : use met
