Wait a minute I thought I said Celestica and a few others have done the Engineering evaluations on a list of 10 top solder paste's and Indium SMQ92J and Kester's R560&562 came out on top. First you say 'don't trust all of the so called experts on thi

Chunks, For our lead-free eval, we had the same problem with "charred looking" solder paste up the component termination of one of the smaller discretes, coupled with excessive solder balling...this smaller part did see peak temps in the 240 range -

It seems familiar, but nothing that I've actually experienced. I've read some articles about tin-whiskering in lead-free solder. I think NASA has some pretty good analysis (or, at least they did a couple of years ago). The summary is that without
