Assembly Challenges of Bottom Terminated Components

Bottom terminated components offer low cost and good functional performance. However, they create challenges for the assembly process. This paper discusses the design, assembly and inspection challenges of bottom terminated components.
Program: Production Floor

Is De-paneling PCBs by Hand Acceptable?

Is it acceptable to hand break when de-panelizing circuit boards that contain QFN and SMD components? Are there specs for hand breaking?
Program: Board Talk

Stencil Design Improves Drop Test Performance

Paper evaluates the influence of stencil printed solder volume on electronic component lifetime in mechanical stress testing.
Program: Materials Tech

Assembly and Reliability Investigation of PoP

This paper discusses the results of independent experiments to address aspects of successful Package on Package integration.
Program: Materials Tech

Is There a Spacing Spec for SMD Components?

Is there a general minimum spacing requirement or should we apply SMT components to comply with the majority of the SMT pick and place systems on the market?
Program: Board Talk

How to Gauge Solder Paste Volume?

How much solder paste should be applied when running a stencil printing system? Should you print a PWB on the first pass, or work the paste a few cycles before the first board?
Program: Board Talk

Challenges for Step Stencil Printing

The focus of this paper is on the printing performance of step-up/step-down stencils and the paper ends up with a short outlook on 3D cavity printing.
Program: Production Floor

PCB Assembly System Set-Up for PoP

This paper will explore the challenges and solutions of PoP assembly for the SMT assembly system.
Program: Production Floor

Mixed Technology - Which First

We are assembling a mixed technology board. We assemble the through hole section first, then reflow the SMT parts. Is it always done in this order? Can the order be reversed?
Program: Ask the Experts

Revolutionary Printing Solution for SMT Assembly

Paper presents new techniques in the screen printing process with the aim of increasing solder paste transfer efficiency. One technique investigated stood out and has been the subject of intense laboratory trials.
