What is the most popular PCB finish for lead-free soldering ? We are using ENIG and trying out Paladium-Silver. Are tin whiskers an issue for anyone ? tin whiskering becomes a big issue if you have any military company as your client. They still p

Would the lead finish on this part happen to be Paladium? I had a problem similar to this some time ago and we found the lead finish was not tin/lead over copper but paladium over nickel. We had to increase the reflow to 225 deg. C peak temp with t

I assumed the balls were tin/silver 221C or tin/silver/copper 218C liquiduous....but, this is obviously not the case. It looks like you balls are almost pure tin (mp=238C) You are correct. This is exactly the same as using 10/90 high temp balls o

Hello all you knowledgeable people. Got a customer who makes components. Asked the question what are manufacturers of components plating their lead with? Tin? Nickel? I heard possibly Paladium but don't know much about paladium. And of course the big

I hate to sound like a broken record but the industry has been placing lead free through-hole parts forever. Now all of a sudden its a problem??? Gold finish, silver, silver paladium, alloy 42, even pure copper. Reliability will be a function of t

TI found an improvement in solderability on their Ni/Pd lead-finishes by using inert (nitrogen) reflow, but this is an expensive operation for just one part.

Gary, I'm pretty much the main contact at TI for palladium lead finish questions. We have a web site at "http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/asl/palladm/index.htm" which has technical papers I have written on the subject. Also, you'll find the Pd Lead Finish
