Flux

In a previous post I spoke about Large Ground Plane Voiding in Electronics Assembly and referred to a statistical tool called an Ishikawa Diagram. This tool helps map out a process and provide an

The tremendous increase in the use of bottom terminated components (BTCs), some estimates are at more than 50 billion per year, have heightened the concern for minimizing voiding between the thermal

Phil Zarrow: Brook, we've discussed handling solder paste from the refrigerator to the stencil printer, but there's a lot more to this story, particularly from the factory to the customer.

Although Au/Sn solder performs like a braze in service, it can also be processed as a solder using flux. There is a caveat – not all fluxes can handle the high processing temperature required

Soldering without flux is generally regarded as difficult if not impossible. Yet a fluxless process is routinely done with 80Au/Sn ribbon and preforms – how can this be? The short answer:

The copper coupon is a pretty simple test. A given amount of solder is reflowed onto a copper coupon with a specified amount of each flux. The test can be performed on either lead-free solder or

« L'Alchimiste » (WF-9955) met à profit sa connaissance approfondie des composants des flux utilisés pour le soudage à la vague et de leurs interactions avec les métallisations afin d'éliminer l'oxyde, tout en assurant efficacement

Phil Zarrow : Voici le premier volet d'une série en trois parties. Cette vidéo s'adresse à tous ceux qui s'intéressent à la conception d'expériences dans le cadre de « Avoid the »

This video is for electronics assembly professionals who are looking to improve their wave soldering processes. It includes tools and resources that will help overcome common challenges. Phil Zarrow:
