Newport Beach, CA – Router Solutions Inc. (RSI) has released an upgrade module for its data preparation software, CAMCAD. The fixture reuse analysis module allows CAMCAD or Agilent fixture files to be checked against new revisions of boards to determine if the existing fixture can be reused or if it must be rebuilt. Anlysis time is reportedly reduced to minutes, instead of hours or days.
Once CAMCAD has read the fixture files each existing probe location is checked against the new board to determine if the location is on the same net and still accessible. If this is the case it will be reported as retained. If the net name has been changed but the existing location is still valid then it will be reported as changed. If the net name is the same but the existing location is no longer accessible and an alternate accessible location on the net is found it will be reported as moved. If no accessible locations are found on an existing net it will be reported as unplaced. If the net no longer is found it will be reported as removed.

ALPHA CoolCap was developed to cool components and semiconductor packages during high-temperature lead-free rework and reflow processes.
Provides protection for adjacent components during rework and protection for targeted components during reflow.
“The higher temperatures required in lead-free electronics assembly rework and reflow create challenges to maintaining processing goals,” said Tom Hunsinger, product manager with Cookson Electronics. “ALPHA CoolCaps and CoolShields provide protection for components and semiconductor packages from these high rework and reflow temperatures that can very often cause defects such as opens/shorts, component warpage and popcorning.”
Offered in standard BGA and QFP Rework Kits. CoolCaps fit over most common BGA and QFP packages; CoolShields fit beside connectors and rows of small components. No adhesive is required; no residue is left on boards or components.

Ionograph SMD IV ionic contamination test system uses an ultra-pure alcohol/water extraction media to test components quickly and without destruction.
Equipped with Bluetooth to allows users to transmit data from the instrument wirelessly to the SCS PowerView software for monitoring and analysis.
“The wireless Bluetooth communication feature in the Ionograph SMD IV will provide customers with increased flexibility and range in their testing,” said Bill Boyd, SCS equipment market manager.
The system is Intertek ETL SEMKO (ETL) certified, meets National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards and is nitrogen-inerted for increased safety.
