Hi, What is the different between Electroless Nickel / Immersion Gold (ENIG) and Immersion Au. Are they refer to the same finishing? We has been using the Gold thickness (0.00005 - 0.00013mm) , nicket (0.0025mm) for all Gold finishing brd (Immersio

We have found very small solder deposits on the gold fingers of some PCI boards after assembly at our CM. In the IPC-A-610, it says that no contamination or solder is allowed in the critical contact area. 1. I'm looking for feedback on what others

This appears to be black-pad and is often the result of using specs that call for gold plating that is too thick. The black pad is corrosion that is created between the gold and electroless nickel during the gold plating process. This is counter in

First, �flash gold� is very loose language. It means different things to different people. �Flash� gold is a thin coat of immersion gold. Imm gold self-limits at ~0.3um[12uin]. And fabs put-down �flash� prior to electroplating thicker gold for wi

Does the conductor spacing requirement in IPC-600G apply to pads? Does it include the nickel/gold finish or only the underlying copper?

There is a tape test from IPC in their TM-650 spec that can be downloaded for free from the ipc website. It will test for gold adhesion to the underlying nickel. Section 2.4.1E, I believe. It is quite simple to perform.
