Silver bearing alloys have been used in electronics soldering for many years. Silver has been used in tin-lead solders (Sn62Pb36Ag2) to combat silver scavenging from silver plated electronic components as well as to improve thermal fatigue resistance. Many of the common lead-free alloys contain some amount of silver. Silver bearing alloys have good electrical and thermal conductivity as well as the ability to wet to the common surface finishes used in printed wiring assemblies, thus giving it all the attributes needed for an electronic solder alloy. Presence of silver in Sn based solders increases the bulk solder modulus and is generally believed to improve resistance to fatigue from thermal cycles. Increased solder modulus can be advantageous or disadvantageous depending on the desired performance attribute. For example in high strain rate situations, higher modulus of the bulk solders results in lower life time. A wide variety of leaded and lead-free

Yes, we did try: built a lot of 200 PCBs with Sn62Ag2 solder paste (we have been using Sn63) and it helped, but not eliminated the problem.

1.) Are there any industry white papers written that document any advantages in running this alloy? From what I've read, this alloy was formulated to prevent leaching of silver for silver-bearing component terminations. 2.) Are there any concerns w

Git otta taun!!! I never have heard of an Sn62 BGA solder ball. Several thoughts on Sn62: * Look at http://www.smtnet.com//forums/index.cfm?fuseaction=view_thread&CFApp=1&Thread_ID=4603&#Message17953& * Search the fine SMTnet Archives on � Sn62 �

| This question is directed to anyone having eperience with Sn62Pb36Ag2 solder balls for BGA's. | Have you seen anything like a rough, raisin-like surface texture after ball attach? If so, what did you do about it? | | Thanks! | Jenna: We've used
