Your plater's recommendation should work fine. Your simple copper plate will work, but you'll be stepping into fighting a copper tarnish battle. Silver over the copper is a better choice. I was thinking a silver thickness of a minimum of 3 microns

You know the scary part about your mentioning a tread where I post something? Well. let's just say that 2007 was a long time ago. Anyhow, silver will dissolve into your solder and provide no barrier. Some people apply a silver flash plating over the

Thanks a lot , my application is cryogenic in nature. I am trying to make a Sub-Angstrom resolution Thermal expansion sensor, whose components have been machined out of OHFC copper, and i needed to solder a manganin wire to one of the capcitor plates

Nichrome, manganin, phosphor bronze etc are easy to solder ... the hard part is removing the corrosion * Manganin: 86% copper, 12% manganese, 2% nickel. Often, it's used in making cryogenic measurements, due to its low heat loss. * Select a flux for

IPC-A-610E-2010, Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies, 8.3.4 Castellated Terminations talks to the acceptability of solder connections on components like yours. It’s tough to say from the pictures, but I’d say your issues are: Missing solder: Plat
