[Andy Brown] is a prolific hacker and ends up building a lot of hardware. About a year back, he built a reflow oven controller. The board he designed used a large number of surface mount parts. This ...

The solders used in the Electronic Industry are rapidly changing from Tin/Lead (Sn/Pb) solders to Lead-Free (Pb-Free) solders to meet new environmental and Green requirements. Many of these ...

This video describes Digicom’s solder reflow services. The advanced high-throughput convection reflow oven from Digicom produces customized time-temperature profiles for each board. A gold super-mold ...

SMD components have a lot of advantages over the through-hole parts our fathers and grandfathers soldered. Working with these tiny surface mount components requires a larger investment than a ...

The company's latest BGA socket-adapter systems promise to solve reflow temperature mismatch issues when using lead-free devices on existing boards with standard solder profiles. Reportedly, the ...

TDK has created a range of surface-mount high-current common-mode chokes. “Customers who prefer reflow soldering but need high-current common-mode chokes can now get an SMD solution,” according to the ...

Discrete electronic components such as resistors, capacitors and even larger IC's are shrinking down smaller every year, and that makes it harder for the average home maker or hobbyist to create their ...

Capable of withstanding 260ûC peak solder reflow conditions while meeting JEDED Level-3 standards, Hysol FP4453 dam-and-fill encapsulant is a black, high-viscosity liquid that provides minimum flow ...
