    Multi Layer PCB

If I should have posted...

    Multi Layer PCB

    He is absolutely right about the increased solder temps causing problems at least from what I am seeing at our facility. The 6 layer board has been in use for 4 years now, and up untill we converted to lead free solders and RoHS compliand boards we never saw a bubble. We went so far as to run...

    PCB bubbling durning reflow soldering

    The company I work for has been experiencing problems with bubbles forming between layers in our Printed Circut Boards. The bubbles have caused traces to break and pull away from pads and vias. The problem only occures after or during the population of the surface mount components. I would...

    Work Instructions, SOE's, SOP's, Build Instructions.

    I know what you are dealing with. I have just finished redoing our assembly instructions. I used power point with the intention of implementing a training presentation for new employees. So far it is working great, but what a pain to get set up.
