We are using SN100C in both our wave and selective machines and have very good results. We also using it for ROHS hand soldering. It flows better than SAC305, the joints are shinny just like Sn63/37. We are looking into using SN100C as our paste b

Hi Chris! I hope this will help you! The CBGA uses an array of high melting point solder spheres(Sn10/Pb90) to connect its ceramic chip carrier to an epoxy glass (FR4) PCB using eutectic (Sn63/Pb37) solder joints at both ceramic and card inter

I have only one incredible idea: this is example of different speed of heat transfer of neighboring pads. I saw it two times during last years, but on lead solder pastes (Sn63Pb37). The reason of this mistakes each times we found two: 1. errors duri

Will there be solder joint integrity issues if in Using Sn60/Pb40 on Sn63/Pb37 processed PCB during Rework? Thank you

There is only one tin/lead ratio that is eutectic. Sn60/Pb40 is not eutectic.

In both cases you will be close to the eutectic composition(61.9%Sn), so I expect joint to be intact and uniform.

Rob We agree with Jason's point about swab lead indicators. You need to be careful interpreting the results. Lead must be in sufficient measurable quantities as found in Sn 63/37 or Sn 60/40 solders. Handheld units are: * Oxford (bought the X-Met

Lead and tin form a eutectic solution. So no to that one, as to breaking some rule or other other people who are far more knowledgeable than me on "the rules" could pipe in. Also tin/lead eutectics don't grow tin whiskers like a lot of the replacemen

Anyone know what difference it makes whether SN63A solder wire is 2% vs 2.2% flux - and why ?

Is your customer trying to reduce voiding? If the device is using Sn90 / Pb10 and the paste is Sn63/Pb37 the board will melt first. However, if both solders are 183C eutectic, it's a tossup? PCB design, copper weight, bga type (pbga, micro bga, Tbg
