A closer look at mixing methods and automated mixers. While automation in manufacturing brings efficiency and consistency, the use of automated solder paste mixers is a topic of debate, with ...

Choose the right solder paste: The viscosity of solder paste is one of the key factors affecting soldering quality.If the viscosity of solder paste is low, it may lead to burrs on the edges after ...

Even if you’ve overcome your fear diddling about with tiny SMD components, applying solder paste – especially if you’re populating more than one board at a time – is still a chore. The pros use very ...

We usually think of solder balls when talking about spatter. There is a certain similarity between solder balls and spatters. However, the industry defining two kinds of defects is mainly due to the ...

The “reverse hybrid” assembly process involves using SAC (Sn-Ag-Cu) solder paste in conjunction with BGA components that feature low-temperature solder (LTS) balls. The soldering is performed using a ...

A solder paste’s viscosity and thixotropic properties influence its performance in different production environments. Viscosity is a measure of a fluid’s resistance to flow. Think of it as a fluid’s ...

The objective of this article is to explain the best techniques for soldering sensors manufactured by Merit Sensor using automated equipment. All profiles must be assessed and tested for best ...
