| WE ARE CURRENTLY HAVING PROBLEMS REFLOWING BOARDS WITH WHITE TIN PLATING. WE ARE NOT GETTING GOOD WETTING ON THE PADS. | WE HAVE CHECKED THE REFLOW PROFILE AND TRIED DIFFERENT PASTE'S. | WE THINK THERE MAY BE CONTAMINATION OR OXIDATION ON THE PADS.

| We have a design on which there is an ASIC that will not be produced anymore in the future. As we want to make this design over the next 10 years we are evaluating the possibility to buy the necessary ASICs for the next 10 years. This will give us

I have been put incharge of developing a process to rework a doublesided SMT PCB with DCA/COB (direct chip attach, chip on board ) components. The rework will consist of removing some 603-1206 chips on both sides of PCB, oh yeah its has a polyuretha

Hi , I have not been able to find any good description on how to perform double sided reflow on PCBs.The best would of course be to avoid reflowing the bottom side again but in real life this is not possible. So when double sided reflow soldering

cvrgrrrl Your first thermal cycle with imm silver should be the easiest to solder. That you see copper indicates you did no soldering, got no wetting, produced no intermetallics, etc. Tell us again which components did not solder? Wuzzis "plug" t

Double check the data sheets for your paste. Just as an example, ou Indium paste has a recommendation for the Heating, Liquidus, and Cooling stagees of reflow. They recommend a linear ramp up of 0.5 to 1.0 degree C. In the Liquidus stage, a peak t

Your vendor site is totally correct. 2Ag is an excellent solder, but it does nothing to prevent tin and gold from reacting chemically. An earlier poster is correct gold goes into solution in liquid solder very fast, less than a second. Gold and ti
