The lab

Equipped for assembly, rework and diagnosis.

Bare boards come from a board house. Everything after that happens in our lab in Beuningen: assembly, rework, inspection and measurement. That keeps each iteration short.

A well-equipped lab lets us assemble, rework and diagnose boards ourselves.

01Prototyping capabilities

Board design and layout. Multi-layer boards with controlled impedance and fine-pitch or BGA footprints, laid out for whichever assembly route you choose.
Assembly down to 0201. We place passives down to 0201 and QFN, QFP and BGA packages by stencil or by hand, then reflow them in a profiled oven or with hot air.
BGA rework. We remove, reball and replace BGAs on a dedicated rework station with controlled heating profiles.
Trace and pad repair. We repair lifted pads, cut traces and damaged vias under the microscope, on prototypes as well as on production boards.
X-ray inspection. A small X-ray shows voids, bridges and hidden joints under BGA and QFN packages.
Ultrasonic cleaning. We remove flux and residue before inspection or delivery.
Microscope inspection. A stereo microscope is used for assembly, rework and failure analysis.
Measurement. Oscilloscope, spectrum analyser into the GHz range, bench meters, frequency counter, programmable supplies and electronic loads.
Programming and debug. JTAG and SWD programming and debugging, plus logic analysis with protocol decoding for the common serial buses.
