Ik vermoed dat dit een handmatige soldeeroperatie was. Hoogstwaarschijnlijk, het strijkijzer was te heet, of het werd te lang op de pad gehouden, of allebei. Als dit laatste, there may have been insufficient flux to enable good heat conduction into the joint, so the operator was forced to keep the iron in place longer than should have been necessary.
The epoxy in the PCB gets distinctly soft above the glass transition temperature(Tg). Guess what? All normal soldering operations happen above the glass transition temperature!
| Item | Temp. |
| Traditional FR4 boards | Tg: 135C |
| modern boards for lead-free soldering processes | Tg: 170C |
| Solder melting temperatures for eutectic Tin-Lead (Sn63) | 183C |
| melting temperatures lead-free solders (SAC305) | 217C |
| oldering iron temperature above the liquidus | 130C |
Facing this problem in soldering operation, all we need to do is making it so fast that there isn’t time for the epoxy to go soft, and that there is no time for the copper pad to lose all adhesion.
En, greater soldering technique should allow the flux to do the work of heat conduction. The soldering iron tip even does not, in feite, touch either component or PCB.
In real life, we almost all do allow such contact, but we take care not to exert pressure while doing so. Because undue pressure is what causes pads to fall off if the temperature has gotten too high!
Daarnaast, tip condition may be the second factors. Tips, which are badly tinned, stop the heat transfer to the joint. Hierop volgend, many operators have to increase the iron temperature and press the iron into the board hard enough to do push-ups, causing SMT pad falling with ease.
