I think the oxidation on the pad happens easily but do not on Au plated pad.The reason may be caused by improper cleaning or Au plating thickness in plating process. But,before suspecting the pcb board, you need to check your process or used material

We're not real clear on the issue. [Got ourselves wrapped around lead (Pb) versus lead (termination), we think.] That aside, comments are: * Boiling point of lead [Pb] is [/K]: 2022 [or 1749 �C (3180 �F)] * It's possible that the material that com

I assume that you're talking about wanting to solder to metal tabs that are spot welded to the battery terminal. These tabs are not meant to be soldered. The metal was special selected for welding. In the old days, you could buy plumbing flux at th

Cristiano, Are your oxidised components now all on boards ? How many and how many terminations ? If you have any that are still to be used, maybe you can get the supplier / customer to replace them, unless of course they are well old. If you have

Pls. help. I�ve problem with non-wetting defect at capacitor termination. I have faced this problem at the 2 kinds of termination. One is chip capacitor 0603 that its outer termination surface composed with 100 Sn (Lead free) and another one is Sta

Can't agree more than moving over to Homebase apertures, But ensure that the cut back angle is correct,to acute of and angle will leave you with an inadequate contact area fot the terminations on the chip components and you will start seeing insuffic

We installed a fixed distance optical sensor above the conveyor rail and "wired it" throught he machines terminal bus to cut the pump on only when a board was present at the pot. We also installed a timer in line so the pump would only stay on long e
