Naw, alcohol and solvents won't do dip. Hold-off on: * Destructive testing. [Athough this will convince you to move on to other things.] * Rework of the solder connections. [Although this will correct the problem.] Consider investigating your aque

You might want to check the tin thickness. I believe you have a minimum of .65 microns in order to achieve a good solder joint through 3 thermal passes. In an immersion tin process, the ability to solder is time and temperature dependant. As the int

Hi Again, In answer to DaveF - Yes solder is fine where the solder paste is deposited , but the part of the pad visible after pasting is still visible after reflow. Previously the solder paste & all the gold diffused & flowed giving a complete silve

We've never heard of it either. Stained glass widow people use varous types of copper and brass tape / foil in their work. A widely used suppler of this tape is Venture [ http://www.venturetape.com ]. They may be able to help. We're not sure how

About SACX307 for wave you can read at post: http://www.smtnet.com/Forums/Index.cfm?CFApp=1&Message_ID=38727 As I have heard, in Europe, Germany in particular, several assemblers are using SN100C for wave (also HASL) with success since years ago.

We have both DRS24 and DRS25 here. I think you will be much happier with the DRS25 as the underboard heating is superior, of course after a year of using the 25, it has its caveats as well, though minimal. I was a little surprised that you are havin

We see this fairly often. It doesn't affect solderability. Our analysis makes us think this coloration is copper. The reason copper appears on the surface may be that heat cycles increase the thinness and porosity of the immersion silver [IAg] coatin

Does anyone out there have experience soldering > with Pb solder (Sn 63 or Sn 62) to SAC 305 coated > PCB lands (about 50um) or Sn-Cu plated lands > (about 10um). I know soldering Pb free (Sac based > soler) to Pb/Sn coated lands is a no-no, but

Sure you can use it it with leaded HASL. Recognize that ... * Your Sn42/Bi58 will no linger be Sn42/Bi58 * Your leaded HASL will no longer be the same leaded HASL that walked in the door to your plant * Lead from HASL coatings can diffuse through the

hi everyone, I want to prototype my PCB. i have designed entire thing and also created GERBER files. Now i want to be prototyped. So, While searching online PCB manufacturing Companies, I found Many companies. But everywhere it is mentioned choose
