Standard for appearance: J-STD-001 and IPC-A-610 committees eliminated the requirement that solder connections be "bright and shiny". Certain solderability protections; such as Au, NiPd, NiPdAu; can affect the surface texture of a solder connection,

few more questions: Is there any standard saying that the dull surface is accepted if solder Au plated leads? Understand that more than 3% Au in the solder connection leads to unacceptable embrittlement of the connection. How about any standard relat

I am looking for an IPC Standard (s) or other standard (s) for electronics assemblies. The kind of operations involved are riveting, assembly of backpanels and circuit cards into metal shelf, wire wrap , soldering , contact pins , cabling etc.

Ashok, What in earthly heaven does this question have to do with "site support"? You can�t always get what you want, but sometimes you get what you need. Some leads are: * The proposed IPC cable/wire harness document is now IPC/WHMA-A-620 and go

We recently had a discussion with customer's QM - he claims that calculations for a proper solder wire diameter and soldering iron tip size (and temperature) have to be performed and documented for all manual (T/H) solderings (based on component size

What you have run up against is the unfortunate consequence of the transition period from Sn-Pb to Pb-free. In the past 2-3 years there have been several studies highlighting the differences in reliability between mixed metal systems, Sn/Pb, and SAC

Can you use 96s solder wire on a pcb that has been plated with standard 60/40? if so what are the effects on the proerties of the 96s? If you cannot mix the two solders is there a more effective way than braid of removing the 60/40 from the plating?

Steve, your best solderer in your shop will know that this ain't standard wire solder. I always put the best solderer on T/C attachment duty when I have a scrap PCB to play with. They even have difficulty getting the stuff to wet to pads and leads.

Resistance: Tables of wire gauge often provide a resistance measure of some kind for each gauge. That way we can estimate the resistance of any length of wire we might be interested in. Calculating trace resistance is only slightly more complicated.

OK all you Gurus here's one for ya. Customer is tinning wires with standard eutectic solder in a solder pot. There is a blue tint to the solder in the pot. After tinning with OA flux, which I will change to NC shortly, he has clear teflon insulation
