I have read some threads about poor wetting on palladium-silver (Pd-Ag) coated components. I followed the suggestions, but I am still having a problem. The part is an 0603 chip type (Vishay varistor). The Process: solder paste is lead-free Alpha Met

Hi I manufacture ceramic parts that have a terminations that are palladium/platinum/silver or any combination of the 3. Termination Ink usually consists of 3 main parts the alloy, glass frit and binder. Binder is to help bind everything together whi

Is this Corrosion? We found our boards with this issue 45 days after they were delivered to us from supplier. The board finish is HAL Leaded. But I noticed that the corrosion like issues are coming form the tiny via holes with SILVER EPOXY FILLING.

Hi, The ROHS compliant parts are usually Matte Tin on the outer terminal plating. There are also 2 further types of metal on the average chip cap - the undercoat metal of the outer electrode & the inner electrode. These are usually the same & are

We are experiencing some difficulties with reflow soldering a 1210-sized MOV with silver/palladium finish. The PCB finish is SAC. When inspecting the board after reflow it seems that nearly all solder is gone both from the pads and the component term

Comments are: * We're amazed that you can thermocompression bond to epoxy. * Silver may be oxidizing during expoxy cure. * Klein Wassink talks about aging in THE BOOK [Soldering in Electronics: A Comprehensive Treatise on Soldering Technology for Sur

We had the same issue recently, we swapped to a 2 part shield to allow AOI and SPC xray. We also tested using silver epoxy and putting a one piece can down after inspection. That worked too.

Blondie I've never heard of using palladium [Pd] for a ring. [Not that that means much.] See, here's a link to discussion on using Pd in jewlery: http://jewelry.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.professionaljeweler.com%2Farchi
