I have a customer with up to 8% scrap from one board supplier and 1% from another supplier for solder dewett and no wet over ENIG finish with mask defined pads. Initially I suspected mask residue on pads because of the no wets but I have come to find

Hi Gani, looking at the HASL icture and the poor wetting of the solder over the pads I would imagine that the HASL coating is very thin on the pads and in actual fact isn't 'solder' but is tin /copper intemetallic and this has poor solderability. It

I have recently come across a device which has a palladium over nickel finish which when soldered shows evidence of poor wetting to the lead ( i.e. a wetting angle greater than 90�) about three quarters of the way up the side of lead. This is only vi

Several points about your query are: * TI�s solderability protection specification is a minimum of 3 u" of palladium over 40-60 u" of nickel plate over a http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/products/logic/package/palladm/index.htm

You want to know which flux will over come thermal mass problems? That's easy - none.

When you talk about 'poor wetting', 'dewett', 'no wets', etc.; are you seeing solder pulling back or away from the pad? Please describe the condition. Dewetting. The condition in the solder joint in which the liquid solder has not adhered intimate

Hi Hoss, Thanks for your reply. Yes I am seeing the flux flood over to the top surface of my board, so to an extent I am not concerned with the fluxer. I believ that the foam fluxer is functioning adequately.

Thanks for the instructions. I was missing the reflow part... Omikron is the method our board house offers. We have been through the plating thickness problem and tin depletion conditions. Beyond those issues, I have been trying a few different n

YiEng, MA/NY DDave: Usually when the gold plating bath goes south, you loose solderability.

Which specific title books from under your pen, would you recommend for the avid process reader/learner? specific - talking about info/process/data wealth books, and not which books give the most royalties *grinz*
