Hi, colleagues! We only start using pb-free tehnology Our wave have foam fluxer What kind of flux would be best if we will use Sn100 solderbar What is your experience Best regards Peter

Hi Jose, such a process is possible, but you need to confirm that the PCB material has high Tg. In additon, you need to re-look solder paste printing parameters and make required changes in stencil apperture design for optimum solder volume. Just a

Dr. Lee, We have seen a small decrease in shear strength for Pb/Sn plated components attached with Sn/Ag/Cu solder compared to components with a Pb-free finish. With the jump in the cost of Pd, we are struggling to define a practical Pb-free

We buy our paste in Semco cartridges. You don't need a pneumatic gun to administer the paste to the stencil, just use a caulk gun which you should be able to purchase at your local hardware store. The cheap ones are about $2 (US). We have green

I tried some SN100C from AIM... On only one array. It flowed well on the chips but did not like the finish on the SOT23's on the board. I did not have enough arrays to mess around, so we switched it over to SAC305 and had no issues. I'm guessing w

Are you talking about Durastone? That's what we use for our wave pallets. Both our wave vendor and solder bar vendor told us that we had nothing to worry about as far as Pb-contamination of the pallets. We have used the same pallets across our Sn

I admit, 16 mil QFP printing is very challenging but if all your control factors (print speed, etc...) are setup correctly (through DOE) extremely high yields can be achieved and more importantly a repeatable and robust product will be manufactured.

My soak at 150C - 180C for approx. 85sec to 100sec. I believe this is sufficient. I can't change my paste because customer wants to use SnPb paste with SAC solder balls. They claimed that they have sucessful result with other CM. I need to know if

The classic dilemma, cost vs. performance. In typical applications, Sn whisker growth is not an issue. It only seems to occur under extreme use (high stress, low temperature)conditions. Until this issue is fully addressed, Pd seems to be the favor

Good morning all. We are able to offer some insight into the problem and offer a recommended reflow profile to solve this issue, but it really depends on the solder paste that you use, as different manufacturers use different boiling point solvents.
