Hi all, we are manufacturing smt components and some weeks ago our customers are facing many problems related to weeting and solderability. I know it is due to the Lead free processes, but anyway, we are quite confuse. In case it was possible, what c

Would the lead finish on this part happen to be Paladium? I had a problem similar to this some time ago and we found the lead finish was not tin/lead over copper but paladium over nickel. We had to increase the reflow to 225 deg. C peak temp with t

Hello all, I am having soldering issues with an Everlight component it is a TM4201/TR2 (Right angle IRDA with a 1mm pitch). The problem I have is that after reflow the solder joints look perfect, but during test we are losing 7 micro amps as soon as

If your component meets ANSI/J-STD-002 - Solderability Tests for Component Leads, Terminations, Lugs, Terminals, and Wires, then the problem is at your customer's operation. If the problem is at your customer's operation, it's very difficult to anal

We seem to be having a lot of issues with solder not flowing to the end of surface pads especially on fine pitch. These are assemblies we have run in the past with few issues. The bareboard finishes do not look the best. Has anyone been experiencing

Hello, we are having issues with two assemblies where the Melfs will lift or not solder on one end of the components. Has anyone had issues with this in the past? What can be done to help this? Thanks
