This is a post from another forum as a response from Bob Landman to a claim that he had no evidence to be concerned about lead-free in hirel applications (interesting read). See below and am sure many technetters will find this interesting **********

It's not the first thing we think of in looking at your picture. First off, the lack of copper in the region of the red oval makes us think of a plating defect. We don't expect that moisture out-gassing through the barrel wall to show-up on opposite

I am looking for a conformal coating to protect a PWB that will be completely submerged in water. Unfortunately polyurethane will not work because it will not fill all of the small spaces and leaves voids.

We design a broad range of DC/DC power supplies for various telecom, internet, and computor applications and have been succesfully using intrusive reflow for ~7 years now. Our pcbs range from 0.065 to 0.090 in thickness and are moslty dense 4 to 8 la

| Hello all, | | Been doing some comparisons on joints made using the soldering iron versus reflowed solder paste (on a QFP package). The difference is quite significant: the joints made by the soldering iron are inconsistent and in many cases not

No experience with low temp solders for PIHR but we do use standard lead free 245-255 peak profiles on high temp connectors frequently. Honestly the added cost of the high temp connector pays for itself in labor. I almost always use oversized apertu

Also I should mention, I've ditched the formulas for getting the "optimal" solder amount after being bit by them once. Now I just design a PCB with 4-10 spots for the connector then order a stencil with a range of aperture sizes. Figure out what give

My brother-in-law is a DDS and I trust him. We had some problems with solder voids in the past, and he was invaluable. He'd drill them out and fill them with SAC3240X+.

I don't know about that paste, but I can give my experience trying intrusive reflow (pin in paste). Using standard Lead-Free paste, we often had issues. It seems that many ROHS parts can't actually handle reflow ROHS temperatures. So the fact that

Help! We have been doing some trials on Paste Through Hole and have encountered a problem. The screen is designed (as is suggested in technical info re PTH) to give double the paste volume required to fill the void between the pin and via. The pro
