Hi, Our engineering board has to decide which technology is better for the hand soldering of the SMT components: HASL or Chemical Ni-Au. We have an automatic line for SMD assembling and our experience shows us that for this automatic line is better

If its Ni/Au and there is no wetting then it should be there you have everything else shown.

Welcome Bob, HASL stands for "Hot Air Solder Level" and is the final finish the raw boards guys place on the solder pads on the PCB. There are two popular raw board finishes, HASL which is a solder finish and NiAu which is Nickle Gold, and is a Gol

after soldering transistors on a flex circuit (Ni/Au plated), one of the lead lift-up from the pad. under microscope (1,000 X), i find some cracks on the the pad surface. with edx analysis, the surface is mainly nickel. have you ever encounter suc

Hello: What's the difference of the OSP, HASL, Ni/Au immersion and ENIG? What's the advantage and disadvantage of them, special for the BGA pad? I had seen some discussion in the forum, but they are for a long time ago. Could somesone can give me the

The buyers in our company like to change the PCB finishing because of reducing costs. The proposed change is going from Ni/Au to HASL lead free, I know that in the beginning of the lead free period there where a lot of problems to use the HASL especi

Hi, we do Sn plated I/O pinning insertion into Ni/Au thru' holes. no problems here so far, as we cater for the "interference" (fit-allowances) of the I/O pin into the thru' diameter, via improved PCB thru' hole designs. before this cater/considerati

I'm not on the production floor on a daily basis like the other guys here but here's my 2 cents: With a Ni/Au plating the inter-metallic that needs to be formed is Ni/Sn. Ni/Sn inter-metallic requires higher peak assembly temperature and a longer dwe

Emmanuel: Take Jax's word. NiAu (ENIG) primary (some would say only) redeeming characteristic is its flatness that you mentioned, but that flatness appeals to folk placing fine pitch devices, rather than BGA. Good luck. Dave F
