Hello, does anyone know if there is an IPC standard for carbon ink? we use for keypads instead ENIG, we found batchs of PCB with 2-3ohm, 20ohm, until 300ohm( resistance of contact surface) by the same PCB supplier!

We do not have experience soldering to the PVD surface you plan to use. We use Titanium [Ti] stiffeners in wave soldering and our wave equipment manufacturer uses Ti fingers, nozzles, pump blades, and other parts, because solder doesn�t stick to Ti.

May I ask what component types you are using and who the suppliers are? FYI - If the components have exceeded their shelf life, they may have oxidized too much for soldering using low activity fluxes. Thanks and best regards, SR

| We currently use HASL on all of our boards and I would like to move to something else. I have sampled some boards with Entek OSP and I loved it, the problem is we have plated mounting holes on just about every board we make. Does anyone have info

Sounds like your Si plalladium finish has oxide on it from the firing or sitting around too long. I used to assemble LTCC and have had plenty of dealings with this matter. The best and easiest is to get an active type flux and solder paste. AIM makes

From the poor bonding strength of the board, the surface quality problems of the board are divided into: 1. The cleanliness of the board surface; 2. The problem of micro graphite (or surface energy) on the surface. PCB circuit board proofing Youke bo

This is common and not an issue it is just the surface oxide Bob Willis

Recently we have noticed a purple-blue colour film on the surface of the molten solder. It can be cleared when de-drossing the pot. The pot will normally go a yellow/gold colour before it turns purple-blue. Is this most likely an oxide of the tin or

Hi All, Let me summarize the key facts and findings: 1) This is not a permanent problem. Only one production batch was affected. The cleaning solution was exchanged and now the cleaning process runs normally. 2) Probably the residues are not ion
