It sounds like what you are seeing is leaching of the end cap. You need to check the manufacturer's spec. Many components have terminal barriers, which get a solder plating. Sometimes this plating process is not done well, and the solder plating le

Pd/Ag doesn't usually dissolve (leach) nearly as bad as Ag only. In my hybrid days, we would use 62/36/2 solder. The 2% silver helps saturate the solder joint and thus keep the Ag from being leached away by the Sn.

| Your problem may be related to silver migration (leaching) into the solder. I had what seems to be a similar problem. The solution was using solder with 2% silver content. See these pages for a bit more information: | | http://www.ferroemd.com/

Q1: Can I know is Chromium restricted from RoHS? A1: RoHS Restricted Substances (Pb, Hg, Cr6+, PBB, PBDE, Cd) Q2: Is this chemical will effect the content of Lead free solder? A2: It's possible that the metals that comprise the stainless steel probe

Have you tried doing solder dip test on these components? Or a Leaching Test, to see if the solder catches on the termination ? I suggest you should try these tests.. Cheers Indy

I have found that Sn62 solder gives better strength and leach resistance when soldering to gold surfaces. The gold needs to be at least 5 to 10 micro inches thick to prevent nickel oxidation but if over 25 micro inches will cause brittleness. I hav

Does anyone have any information about eliminating voids on BGA using SN62 as opposed to the normal Sn63, something which explains the inter-metallic layers which form during the soldering process and the leaching out of silver ?
