As the traqnsistion to Pb free manufacturing gains speed and exposure the period between true Pb free solutions and the present is still somewhat distant. Are there any publications or documentation on the use of Pb free components and non-Pb free

Hi, What would be the standard band width for Pb-free soldering? As per my knowledge this should be 3cm to 6cm. What is best?

In the design stages, we have been asked about the difficulty in soldering a 4AWG (stranded) wire to a PCB for a high current application. Questions - can this be hand soldered normally? What about wave? Process will probably be Pb-Free. All opinions

We use the same oven for both Pb and Pb-free assemblies. We have been for about two years. We have not seen any issues with contamination. I can't imagine how any Pb would end up in a Pb-free joint in the reflow oven. The Pb doesn't vaporize, the

Hi Ken What exactly the best reffered angle for Sn/Pb & Pb-free soldering? Is there a site where I can read the basic engineering concepts about this topic?

I have a product with mixed in Pb free and Pb BGAs. I decide to use SnPb paste with Pb free reflow profile to make it work for both types of BGA. Do I have a reliability solder joint issue by using this method? How is your opinion on this case? Can

1. If I go to the Pb-free solder paste, is it necessary that I have to change my reflow oven OR just by changing with respect to solder paste specification, I can reach my goal? 2. What is the �Low- Temperature Phase� in any solder paste alloy? 3.W

Here is a nugget from the Data Sheet... Wave Soldering: Excess moisture on the PCB during soldering may lead to random solder balling and poor wetting of some solder joints. IT IS IMPORTANT that the flux solvent carrier (water) is fully evaporated a
