Benefits and Drawbacks of Using Nitrogen (N2) in SMT Reflow Ovens: Optimizing Soldering Quality and Reducing Oxidation
The primary purpose of adding Nitrogen (N2) to the SMT reflow oven is to reduce oxidation on the soldering surface and improve the wettability of the solder joints. Nitrogen is a colorless, odorless, and chemically inactive gas. It belongs to … Continue reading
