I have this same problems on the flex i use, most of which has an ENIG or immersion silver finish. About the only thing I know to do is have your supplier package it in a vaccume seeled bag to keep it from oxidizing. Otherwise you end up having to

hi All, Here i snap shot previous PCB(HASL) and current PCB(Immersion Silver).Base on the photo it could be PCB oxidize cause the non wetting?

We are considering the use of Immersion Silver for a PCB surface finish. We currently use Immersion Gold surface finish, which has served us well. However, recent discussions on the cracking of corner joints on large pin count BGA packages, with the

HI..anyone who can give me a link to enlighten me on this plating for pb-free..Most people say this is the same? ARe they really? or different in process?? ..Any info on best storage for this plating? I have read all those stuff like avoiding sulfuri

William: Three things: 1 If the gold is porous, it will not protect the nickel and the nichel wiil oxidize and become unsolderable. 2 If the nickel is not solderable, the gold overcoat will not improve that. 3 Ag or Au over electroless Ni creates b

Dave: It's good to know what that stuff is. With your NiO, you have the typical ENIG problem. I can imagine some causes for your disaster: * too thin gold plating * oxidized nickel under gold plating * porous nickel plating * wrong soldering pr

| Hi, | There has been a lot of disputes in our company | about changing present HASL to another Finishing | which can provide more flatter pad surface in fine | pitch applications. ( perhaps Ni/Au, OSP ) | The target is to reduce solder defects, t

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

Hi Rob, I did check with the board house, and the confirmed that there was no Nickel plating, but that the silver went straight onto the copper in their immersion silver process. Interestingly I've even tested an unplated sample from that board hou
