A new validation technology in concert with visual inspection represents a change to the status quo in hand soldering. Production Floor In this paper, the reliability of lead-free SAC solder alloys at high temperature and vibration for pristine and thermally aged assemblies is analyzed. Materials Tech This paper is a continuation of previous work on voiding. The voiding results are summarized and recommendations made for reduction of voiding. Production Floor What temperature should the solder pot in our selective soldering machine be? Should the temperature be different from our wave system? Jim Hall and Phil Zarrow, also known as The Assembly Brothers, address these questions and share their expertise. Board Talk An increasingly popular method to meet the need for lower cost circuitry is the use of aluminum on Polyester (Al-PET) substrates. Production Floor When selective soldering the secondary side, we are producing solder balls on the primary side. What can be done to prevent this from happening? The Assembly Brothers, Phil Zarrow and Jim Hall, address this questions and share their own experiences. Board Talk Our pallet manufacturer recommends titanium inserts to allow larger apertures near closely spaced surface mount components. Are they worth it? Board Talk We are still searching for alternative lead-free alloys. Selective soldering requires relatively high solder temperatures to get proper hole filling. Materials Tech This paper presents data showing that localized distribution of recrystallized grains is an accurate indicator of solder joint life-cycle degradation and enhancement. Analysis Lab In this paper, we will discuss a solder paste wetting method. A high resolution solder wetting balance was used for the solder paste wettability analysis. Production Floor |
