Soldering problem with Au plating PCB

Electronics Forum | Mon Feb 09 16:55:28 EST 2009 | cuperpeter

Hi Sachin, thanks for your feedback. According to our supplier, surface plating is electrolytic gold over Nickel(not ENIG), but I think that is a still improper thickness for Au. (according to 3rd Working Draft from September 2008 of IPC 2221B "0.4

Allowable bow & twist: Together, both IPC-A-600G and IPC-6012B represent the core IPC documents for describing the acceptable and nonconforming conditions that are either externally or internally visible on finished printed boards. IPC-A-600G relies

Need input on cracked caps/new reflow

You are correct that hand soldering ceramic capacitors often causes them to crack. They do not take thermal shock well. You might be able to reduce the amount of cracking by following the rework repair guidelines discussed in the fine SMTnet Archiv

I want to suggest: * IPC-2221, Generic Standard On Printed Board Design * IPC-222X, Sectional Design Standard For Printed Board For Y Printed Boards ... but I just thumbed through both quickly and saw nothing, I really didn't spend as much time as I

Sorin: Formulas for calculating heat dissipation of traces don�t seem to provide practical results. But there are some wonderful tables and graphs that will meet you needs. You may need to do some finagling when calculating vias and through holes,

I am getting black spots / stuff while I run gold finish PCB through reflow soldering process using NC solder paste.The affected spots have intermetalic as black in color. Does not solder very well. I did look at the archieve but could not find info

I'm a bit confused about reading IPC-275 (I know I should have IPC-2221/2222) but I'm sure they are similar. Anyway, I am doing a: Military, less than 100V, non-conformal coated PCB, External Etch Sec 5.3.1.4 Edge Spacing.. (Pg 61) says use Tabl

For soldered areas, we like to keep gold thickness substantially below the maximum you propose. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for our discussions on the topic of acceptable levels of gold with solder connections. Let�s fix this �no one seems be s
