Is the Sn% of the plating of the pin related to wetting quality?. I am having issues with one IC maker where some pins are OK and one or two pins are not soldered, even when there is weeting evidence underneath the pin. I am blaming the %Sn too hig

Hi, ALL I experience some QFP with wetting issue on the heel of the lead. There is no fillet wetting on the heel which causes reject bt the customer, but not all the QFP. Could anyone pls help what is the causes of this problem, it is due to oxidati

Could be any one of the 3 you mentioned, need some details here, do you really think we can answer this question as it is? Now for your issue, what is the make up of the lead itself on the part? what is the reflow profile at this part? what is

Has anyone out there had solder joint wetting issues with Murata ceramic chip caps, in particular with Alpha UP78 no-clean paste? We are finding that changing either the paste or the vendor corrects this problem. If so, please advise your solution(

Hi, I am having a SAC 305 solder paste with water soluble flux wetting issue. during reflow, the solder melts, but doesnt flow. the reflow profile was developed by the solder company person (Kester). the board is a test assembly to validate our LF pr

Good evening, I�ve just solved very similar soldering issue. In my case the problem was with 0603 chips. Solder joint had same appearance. I suspected that solder do not melted and increased TAL and peak temperature. No result. Next thing I tried to

You need to verify if you're getting up to the needed temps. It looks like you're not. I'd say it started to reflow but never reached a long enough time. Nitrogen may help with further wetting.

Are you sure you're getting enough paste on the pads? It looks like you may not have enough flux to get the solder to wet properly.

Curious. Tell us more about: * Murata solderability protection * Solderability protection on the caps used to replace the Muratas * Reflow profile used with each of the two pastes * Differences in the two pastes

It looks to me that your reflow profile is not hot enough. Seeing the granular structure of the solder paste still on the board would indicate the paste has not reflowed entirely.
