See "IPC-4554 Specification for Immersion Tin Plating for Printed Circuit Boards" 3.2.1 Immersion Tin Thickness. The most common reason for solderability issues with the white tin surface coating during multiple thermal excursions is a thin white ti

Hi everyone, I am starting to use the lead free process and I had a few wetting problems (solder did not reach top side) at the wave soldering process once the pcb had passed our smt line (one heat pass). From what I understand, I have had a problem

Are there any standard qualification/acceptance requirements for immersion tin board finish? J-STD-003 calls out temp/humidity preconditioning followed by solderability testing which is similar to what we have in our (ancient) internal documents. O

We are investigating alternatives to HASL finishes for more dense PWBs. OSP is not a good choice because of low solid flux and possibly long shelf life. Immersion gold is expensive and so far has been more difficult to wave solder. Has anyone had

We have mixed to negative feelings about Omikron, but I beileve it is due to problems with the board fabricator rather than the process itself. When done properly, our Omikron boards have had very good solderability. However, we have had several ru

Eurolanders and Asians are the primary users of immersion tin. In the US, the use of immersion tin is restricted due to the concern over the thiourea that used in tin plating process. Thiourea is a suspected carcinogen. I’m inclined to say, “aww, as

Hello to everybody in this forum, I would like to know any information that you kindly may have about the following subject: We very often do manual soldering assembly of immersion tin finished PCBs. Since thiourea is used in the formulation of the
