How can I mount a pulse oximeter on the surface of PCB without putting too much stress?

The PCB has a pulse oximeter mounted on the surface, and it's tolerance is 0.6mm. The problem is the pulse oximeter needs to touch the bottom case at all times. How to best mount the PCB in the case without putting too much stress on the pulse oximeter? Will screws with flexible washers be all right? Sadly separating pulse oximeter from main PCB is not an option.

Put a machined guard around the pulse oximeter to keep the surface from it at about 0.2-0.3 (if it is and SMD part soldering height tolerance is about 0.2mm) and then simply screw down the resulting assembly.

Otherwise use weak springs to push the p.o. against the case, need to know the allowed stress on the body for that.

Hoeveel PCB-lagen zouden er ongeveer nodig zijn om een 1088 pin BGA IC?

Ik ben een PCB aan het ontwerpen met 1088 pin BGA IC. Ik heb niet zo'n groot IC aankunnen. Ik weet niet zeker wat de beste hoeveelheid laag is.

What are the black spots in lead-free solder joints on PCB?

I am prototyping a PCB, using Chip Quik’s “SMDSWLF.031, a Sn96.5/ Ag3.0/ Cu0.5 solder with 2.2% no-clean flux. I find that the black spots appears frequently in larger pads on my board. I wonder if it is because I left the soldering iron more time heating the solder and that burnt the flux. What is that black residue? Is that a sign of a bad joint or maybe bad soldering technique?

Welke apparatuur wordt gebruikt door professionele PCB-fabrikanten??

This month we plan to find a proper suppliers to produce PCB for our new products, a healthcare watch. One of our supplier assessment items is about production equipment, which I know few about them. Can you share some common equipment which professional factory may use?
