The only way to resolve these issues is to bring back the good ol� lead and make the joints ductile instead of brittle for an affordable price. Thanks for the link Dave

I heard that Swatch was granted their exemption to use lead solder for anything under 800 microns pitch. Is this true? Can't find a thing on the Web stating that this exemption was granted. Chris

James, Smart thinking!! That�s what Swatch and probably Sony does. And to set the record straight Japan doesn�t have a lead ban in solders only a recycling program similar to the European WEEE

Am I missing something, or does this exemption only apply to lead finishes? That's the way it appears in the referenced section, anyway. How does that exempt them from Pb-free processing?

Of course it is needless to say the performance of SACX0307 is worse than SAC305, and also to some other lead free solders,eg SN100C & SCS7.

Make sure you check to see that they are not lead-free balling and using leaded profile. We had this and had continous problems. We had to send out our BGA to get reballed.
