We have problems with voids when we solder lids to ceramic flatpackages. The sealring of the package is gold(100 micro inches or 2.5 micro meters)with a underlayer of Nickel The solder is attached to the lid (preform) and the solder material is Au/S

Hello Dave, Yes, this is a patented commercial process in our MEMS Foundry and we are already working with several customers. I posted my question because we only recently have started widely promoting our AuSn plating services and we're still grasp

For lid sealing, a seam seal machine will be used which produces only localized heat on the joint, so any components inside the package soldered with Au/Sn will be unaffected by the final process. [ http://www.coininginc.com/files/admin/english_gold_

Your understanding of the situation is correct. In both cases, you solder to the nickel. The gold [Au] protects the nickel from oxidation. When soldering, the gold moves into solution in the solder and forms an intermetallic compound [IMC] with th

Mario, Thanks for your response. We are building a leaded assembly with hot air leveled Sn/Pb pads on the PCB. In one case the component is a 7.5X5.2X1.8 wire wound ferrite inductor with Au/Sn leads. The second component is an 0808 Tantalum cap,

Expanding on the limit of the portion of gold acceptable in a solder connection [mentioned in an earlier post]: The embrittlement culprit, AuSn4, is 29 weight percent gold. So even if one had 100% tin as the solder alloy and 10% gold were dissolved
