| We process both tin/lead plated boards and gold plated boards in our surface mount group. I have used Sn62/Pb36/Ag2 solder paste on all gold plated boards to help prevent gold scavaging. To reduce the amount of different solder pastes we have to

When soldering your full tin (no lead) and Pb95/Sn5 solder components, you need to modify your PbSn reflow recipe to compensate for the higher melting point of the changed solder alloy [with your Sn62/Pb36/Ag2 solder paste] on those component leads.

Hello SMTnet team, I have read before that silver content on solder joints is ok at around 2% total silver content. Does anyone has experience using SN62/PB36/AG2 BGAs on hard gold (10 micro inches) PCB surface finish? Any drawbacks? Thanks Joel

We're not sure what your customer is talking about either. Gold and tin form an intermetallic compound [IMC] that can cause poor solder connections. To minimize the potential of a problem, keep gold to less than 3 percent of the metal. [Search the

| 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! | I have seen this be

Is there anyone who can tell me what is the maximum allowable soldering temperature when soldering a TQFP (Thin Quad Flat Pack) device in a reflow oven? We recently used a CY7C375i in a TQFP160 package and we experienced warping (bending) of this com

Hi, About Thombstone defects: 1.Placement accuracy-main reason 2.Soldering-should be right on pads.The print should have regular shape.The quontity of the solder on both pads on one component have to be equal. 3.Reflow: the profile have to be made v
