SMT Placement & Reflow ====================== * Paste print with SPI control (if available) * Place per CPL; verify polarity/orientation (diodes, IC pin‑1, electrolytics) * Reflow per profile: preheat/soak, peak temp and time above liquidus per alloy datasheet * BGA/QFN: sample X‑ray for voids/bridges * Rework only with approval and per IPC‑7711/7721; document
