[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 ...

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 ...

You just got in an order of new solder paste for the lab and it is lead-free solder. You are getting ready to build up a new prototype. Do you need to change the temperature profile of your reflow ...

NIC Components' NACZ series of surface-mount electrolytic capacitors can now be exposed to a maximum soldering temperature of +255°C. The new temperature rating makes these devices more compatible ...

Japanese storefront Shigezone has recently listed a USB PD (Power Delivery)-operated reflow oven. The top plate reaches a maximum temperature of 280 degrees Celsius at default settings or 350 degrees ...

In a conventional lead-free soldering process reflow ovens operate continuously at about 260°C. An effective alternative capable of operating at a lower temperature could significantly reduce the ...

Nowadays, there are many interconnects in IC chips. One of the packaging goals is to connect an IC to the next level of subsystem circuitry (package substrates/print circuit boards). Mass reflow (MR) ...

Surface mount transformer design, packaging, soldering and RoHS compliance can all quickly come into conflict during the manufacturing process. The rapid temperature changes required by reflow ...
