Universal Instruments’ Advanced Process Lab hosted the first Advanced Research in Electronics Assembly (AREA) Consortium meeting of 2010 at the Treadway Inn in Owego, NY on June 16-17. Nearly 80 attendees from the 29 member companies participated in the two-day event, which will also be presented in subsequent webcasts. Topics ranged from thermal interface assembly to a continuing analysis of lead-free solder microstructure and reliability.

Be careful if you use Ni/Au. The "black pad" phenomenum can be crippling. We moved from Ni/Au to OSP because of it. I also don't want to return to the lack of flatness of HASL.

Several online PCB fabrication quote forms offer SMOBC as a surface finish along with HASL, Ni/AU, etc. How does one specifify SMOBC for traces and untented vias, and elctroless Ni/Au for smt pads? Are these processes mutually exclusive? Or can I g

Will the gold from some Ni/Au surfaces make the solder joints appear dull and a slightly rugged on the surface ? Does anyone have any experience with this ? Thanks !

Is anyone has experience on problems with press-fit on Ni/Au board finish. Connectors pins are SnPb finished. I am particulary interested by experiences or documentation in very agressive environmental conditions (avionics or space buisness) Thanks r

Anyone knows if there are some issues when you solder Silver finish components on Ni-Au finish pads with Sn/Pb/Ag solder paste (Indium)? (I must use components with silver finish) Thanks

We have a simular problem with Ni/Au; especially whith pcb thickness more than 1.8mm. Note: These boards have been through reflow process also. 1.)Is there a maximum board thickness where it would be almost impossible to get a decent hole fil? 2.)Wi
