In the portion of Chapter 1 on Flip Chips, Ken Gallio states (1.8.2.1) "tin/lead solder leaching or dissolving gold and form metal compounds, called dendrites, that greatly reduce joint reliability because of high brittleness." What is the compositi

Leaching. Dissolution of a metal coating into liquid solder. Leaching applies to liquid solder and, at times, is applied inaccurately to metallurgical effects, like diffusion, that occur after the solder has solidified. Please help us understand y

GUYS SEEING A PROBLEM WITH SOLDER PASTE LEACHING. THE PCB IS HASL FINISH , AND THE DEVICE IN QUESTION IS A O.O30" PITCH RESNET. THE SIZE OF THE PADS ARE 0.020 x 0.0.047 THOU , THE APERTURE SIZES ARE 0.018 x 0.042 THOU . THE LEACHING IS OCCURING DUE

Hi, I understand that solder dipping of gold plated units (PCB or component lead) is not the ideal solderability test (leaching of gold in the solder bath being one reason). Would anyone have recommendations as to the ideal solderability tests for g

Don't forget that leadfree solder can leach the iron out of old solder tanks. Make sure yours is compatable with leadfree solder. You don't want the tank disolving, unleashing a tidal wave of molten solder.

I am curious to know anyone has used Samtec SEMA Solder Charge connector (SEARAY Seriese. I have done manufacturer's recommended solder paste and good reflow profile still the solder is leaching to the lead instead of becoming a solder connection. T

I have recently encountered a new pcb design with a very high density of components on either side of the pcb. One of the suggested "fixes" is to use the smt pads as vias i.e. the via will be drilled thorough the centre of the smt pad. My concern i
