Solder powder size is a popular topic in the electronics industry due to the continuing trend of miniaturization of electronics. The question commonly asked is "when should we switch from Type 3 to a smaller solder powder?" Solder powder size is usually chosen based on the printing requirements for the solder paste. It is common practice to use IPC Type 4 or 5 solder powders for stencil designs that include area ratios below the recommended IPC limit of 0.66. The effects of solder powder size on printability of solder paste have been well documented. The size of the solder powder affects the performance of the solder paste in other ways. Shelf life, stencil life, reflow performance, voiding behavior, and reactivity / stability are all affected by solder powder size. Testing was conducted to measure each of these solder paste performance attributes for IPC Type 3, Type 4, Type 5 and Type 6 SAC305 solder powders in both water soluble and no clean solder pastes. The performance data for each size of solder powder in each solder paste flux was quantified and summarized. Guidance for choosing the optimal size of solder powder is given based on the results of this study.

With its rule-breaking wave solder alloy, SN100C, Nihon Superior Co., Ltd. earned global recognition as an innovator in lead-free solder formulation. The rule that SN100C broke was that you can't make a Pb-free solder without a silver content that doubles the cost of the raw materials. Now Nihon Superior has broken that rule again with SN100CV, a reflow soldering alloy that can outperform SAC305 in reliability while being reflowable with the same thermal profile as SAC305.
