We are using a mixed technology process with mostly through-hole parts plus some SMT IC's on the component side and some passive SMT parts on the solder side. We do not have a proper wave soldering machine for doing solder side SMT (double wave or o

| Are there many of you who are soldering through hole parts in your surface mount reflow oven? How repeatable is the process? Do you need to touch up a lot after reflow? We don't do long runs maybe 200, 300 boards max. Can you just screen print

I'm researching the history of SMT. In particular, I'd like to get some general information on MILESTONE events like: FIRST IC COMPANY TO RELEASE IT, BOTH TO DEFENSE INDUSTRY & TO THE MASS MARKET. WHEN? WHICH COMPANIES & MARKETS (TELECOM, COMPUTE

I'm just getting more involved with SMT, as I've been a through-hole operator for years. But I don't understand how one could reflow SMT components AFTER the through-hole insertion and solder wave are finished. How does one print paste over a board w

Your tantalum capacitor supplier offers the best advice. We're not sure of the package that you plan to use. * If you are referring to molded package, surface mount, tantalum caps, yes, they can be wave soldered. Smaller case size chips (eg, Kemet A

Being its sudden and only 1 product I would suspect the PCB particularly the barrels in the plated through holes being contaminated.

How long and at what temperature to you bake through-hole boards for moisture? I am getting blow holes after the wave solder. Everything points to the drilling of the board, but I need to prove that it is not moisture.

If IPC-SM-782 is for Surface Mount Land Pattern, what is the Standard used for Through Hole Guide (eg. Component Lead Thickness versus Hole diameter etc.), where can I find them? thanks

We've talked about it a fair amount here on SMTnet. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for background. People use a variety on names to talk about this. Common names are: * Paste in hole [PIH] * Pin & paste
