We�d say that it�s incorrect that ENIG solderability protection cannot be steam aged. It�s true the immersion tin and silver cannot be steam aged. We believe that most of the issues surrounding the poor performance of ENIG after steam aging is attr

I heard that Steam Aging (storage) tests would be inappropriate for gold finishes. Is this a correct statement? If so, what are the reasons? How bad is the shelf life of ENIG

PWB shelf life: HASL---3mth ENTEK-- 2mth Before using expired PWB, it is suggested to go thru HASL or ENTEK angain. Ask your VDR to serve this. Re immersion Au, mostly when the thickness under 3u"(micro pores present), the surface gold will serve a

Wayne, I haven't seen anything indicating that Gold Immersion is necessary for lead free... However, it is my companies preferred finish for lead free assemblies. We've taken this stance for the following reasons: 1. Better solder quality on th

I asked Randi Gates, Electrolube Marketing to join us to help with the conversation. Taking a step back from the Electrolube question, I could envision a 10 minute soak in DI water stripping the gold from a an ENIG board, you know, depending on the

Does anyone have any experience with fired-silver/platinum/palladium lead terminations soldering. I have had issues on nickel over gold plated boards but not with HASL'd boards with tin/lead pads. Is this the norm?
