Our preference has been ENIG. We find that we achieve higher quality (visually) soldering for through hole and surface mount parts, with less handling issues than when we use white-tin, or immersion tin. We are about to do a test on some boards tha

Hello! I am having trouble with the new changes from lead joint to lead free joint, we are working on change to lead free, I am using a 3 zone oven reflow, the zone temps are : zone 1 zone 2 zone 3 (top and bottom) 128 208 260 th

Depends on your specific application. Can you handle lower reflow temps? Can your parts handle higher reflow temps? What environment will your assembled product have to endure? Lot of different factors come in to play when choosing the right allo

IPC-A-610D Section 5, shows a variety of photographs of: * Good lead-free solder connections * Lead-free soldering anomalies Hot Tear / Shrink Hole is one such anomaly. This shrinkage effect appears primarily on wave-soldered joints, but can also

Anyone know any international standard (e.g. IPC, JIS) for the SAC lead free solder strength ? If no, any industrial / company standard for it ? Besides, any mathematical model which can help to calculate it.... express in "Force / area "

What volume of boards are you putting through. 1Kg per hour does sound very high but then again it does depend on volume Using an antioxidant is a must with Lead Free some alloys have additions in them to start with but those drop out with use so th

Bob, Great theory if you're selling SN100C, but I have to disagree that an alloy being 4�C off eutectic will cause cracks. When a solder joint exits the solder wave, there is an immediate drop in temperature of 100�C. so being off 4�C is irrelevant.
