I discovered that we have some gold plated (30 mico in.) through hole connectors which were Paste In Hole soldered (60 sec at reflow) on a HASL PCB. Do we have an embrittlement reliability issue? The calculated volume % of gold in the joints is about

does anyone have experience with reflow of Micro SD cards to PCB@ lead free temps?

I think you are close to the problem when you expect the pcb having a problem. When I look at your different pics I saw that your via holes looks like this pcb has a hasl finish... and when i look at Q 14 this picture tells me that the pcb is not an

I think the main cause of this condition is #3 because both #1 and #2 never change from board to board, these are identical boards with identical BGA revisions. These BGA's (as stated before) are about 3 years old.. I don't believe they are lead free

| I need some advice concerning reflow of a BGA-292. Since I am not ready to change my entire process to no-clean, I decided to place the lone BGA-292 on a proto run using our BGA re-work station. The pcb is a moderately dense, single-sided, 8-laye

It could be a gold finish problem. The recommened gold finish thickness is less than five micro inches. Gold thickness greater than five microi inches is significant contributor for causing embrittlement of the solder joints. Verify the reflow profil

Thank you for your kind contribution and efforts in helping me. I just found out we have been talking different units; my microns were micro meter ...? So, let me get things right now: the substrate supplier confirmed the following data: Cu foil +

Charlie B: You mentioned that you have an air conditioned environment and a RH 0rf 50, baking the boards is predominately done when the history of the PCB delivery and / or previous storage conditions are un known. When I was with a CM, we did this a

If you hold your board sideways in a 90 degree angle you apply a force of 1 g to your components. 1 g translates into 32 ft / sec. square. This is not too much acceleration for fearless roller coaster drivers but Melf�s and Tantalums can fall off at
