We are having trouble with some through-hole connectors "shorting out" on a thick backplane. Preliminary research is suggesting that it may be due to excess flux, trapped under the plastic connector shell. I have done a bit of searching in the fine S

Hello again.... I have been reading up on profiles and how to set them up for different results. I now have an upcomming job with some strict guidlines on reflow. I was wondering... if I were to email a pic of my desired profile could someone out the

I use Kyzen's Aquanox SSA cleaner in a heated parts cleaning tub to clean anything with flux condensate on it. When heated to 120F, the stuff melts away like ice under hot water. When the cleaning solution is loaded, I send it in an evaporator. The s

I've done some experiments on baking parts as we got pop corning QFP's on our production line. This QFP has moisture level of 5 and I baked them @ 125'C for minimum of 12 hrs. So far results were great but I have a question: Forum says that I cannot

Hi Dave Interesting points. If I understand you correctly 1. about 2% of part numbers have a moisture problem 2. Packaging frequently comes in with expired dates on them. This seems hard to believe you would accept them. 3. To really solve the

I have never heard about a requirement for temperature ramp-up for baking components at 125C. In general the concern for delamination with moisture sensitive components starts above 200C (peak body temp). Most important is you should bake your com
