You should see a coarse silverish / grayish coat on the termination that indicates that it soldered. We have to opinion [don't know] about the strength of solder connection versus the strength of component terminations.

If you think you have an intermetallic, soldering as probably done correctly. In that case, expect the solder to fail in the solder, just above the intermetallic. This the weakest portion of the solder, because the tin has be depleted to form the i

Hi RObl, Thanks for response , sorry to ask again & again . Is cobar paste solved the issues from poor wetting from nickel to PCB soldering,whether it will improve the peel off strenth more than 5 kg ?? as per our current last production , this nic

Yes, kind of - I had a look through my notes from a while back where we did a lot of work on bending strenght but the only original source I could find was reference to a paper drawn up in 1979 "Increase Terminal to Pad-Peel Strength with a Standard

Scott: Sounds like fun: � Solder joint strength in pull/shear varies with lead geometry, solder volume, lead metal/metallization, and the test method. � Among things, IPC-TM-650 talks to getting pads off-of boards. For instance: Method 2.4.8 is for

Hi Prem, Yes, the flux in the Cobar paste helped with wetting and joint strength, as does reducing voids as there is more solder in the joint, as does cooling rate. Regarding peel test in KG, it depends on the pad size and volume of solder in the j

Don't sound proper. There is no specification. Pad peel strength test methods are: * IPC-TM-650, Method 2.4.21 for multiple solderings * IPC-TM-650, Method 2.4.8 for copper peel with a Instron machine. Typical requirement for Cu is: 6 lbf/in [1

This type of testing is only done to verify your reflow process. It is destructive testing and should not be performed on product reaching your customer. Solder is only used to provide the electrical connection from part to board. As a metal it is

hi everyone, I just got some question with regards to the life span of components from the date it was packed from supplier. Does the parts more than 2 years from the date it was process by supplier: 1. Can it still be used in PCBA?? 2. will it not
