Hong Guan: When thinking about high nickel alloys: � Kovar, Alloy 42, and Invar are generally thought of as hermetic sealing materials, because of their coalescence with glass, platabililty, and coefficient of thermal expansion properties. � Permall

Sounds like someone aimin� fo tha big hurt, if ya axes me. Two spots to place your lawn darts are: 1 J Hwang in "Modern Solder Technology � " states (p.354) that " � extreme CTE mismatch between silicon IC (~2) and the PCB (~16), solder connections

More on QFP soldering issue as per Paul f original e-mail. 1. Problems occured on different PCB's, on different lines using different equipment 2. Flux residue is common in the dimple on the solder. 3. The fault occurred using both "Kester 265" & "Al

First, how oxidized are these solder balls? Will the take solder using your routine flux / paste? Second, on restoring solderability, the three basic methods you can use to restore solderability on components are: * Highly active fluxes in a retinn

I hate to sound like a broken record but the industry has been placing lead free through-hole parts forever. Now all of a sudden its a problem??? Gold finish, silver, silver paladium, alloy 42, even pure copper. Reliability will be a function of t

Hi All! I've been reading this conversation which prompted me to break out the IPC-SM-786A from the IPC manuals from our parent company in Maryland sent us (we're just starting up in California). It's the Procedures for Characterizing and Handling of
