Hi Peter, The defect you observe during the second side reflow could be caused due to improper Au plating thickness in the PCB fabrication process. You can refer IPC-2221 wherein plating thicknes for ENIG mentions 0.08um to 0.23um for Immersion Gold,

Thanks... anyway I confirm, the nickel disappear (verified by cross section)and a strange substance greyish above gold, covering the tabs after test. I don't know the reason for this phenomenon. I don't believe that with proper electrolytic nickel fi

From my experience Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold or ENIG finish gives the best results but does cost more than other available finishes. It has good solderabilty, good shelf life and is flat. Details of other available PCB surface finishes can

As a manufacturer, I prefer plated nickel gold, electroless nickel immersion gold, immersion silver and palladium. These surface finishes are the best options to replace leaded surface finishes. These surface finishes can withstand higher temperature

| I'm having a problem getting good reflow on gold sufaced boards. The profile looks good and I have adjusted it both hotter and colder and adjusted the various times ( soak, reflow ) to no avail. What realy gets me Is that a month ago we built some

| Has anyone had experience with placing BGA on gold plated boards. I thought I read a while ago there was a problem with embrittlment causing cracked joints. If anyone has experience with this your feedback would be great. | Mike There has been a

5uin. Your nickel thickness is fine. Although if you wanted to trade costs, consider giving-up nickel to 150uin thickness, while increasing the gold thickness. Gold over electroless nickel creates brittle joints because of phosphorous in the nicke
