  • Publication number: 20210215541
    Abstract: A computer determines one or more temperature sensitive components from a part details in a bill of materials for soldering on a printed circuit board assembly, where the bill of materials is a record comprising part details having a reference designator. The computer determines whether temperature sensitive components exist in the bill of materials. Based on determining that at least one of the temperature sensitive components exist in the bill of materials, the computer determines temperature limits for each temperature sensitive component based on the reference designator, monitors, using the thermographic cameras the measured temperatures of the temperature sensitive components during soldering in the reflow oven.
