Several points about your query are: * TI�s solderability protection specification is a minimum of 3 u" of palladium over 40-60 u" of nickel plate over a http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/products/logic/package/palladm/index.htm

To be short, no change in profile is going to get you through this. As I recall the point of hard gold is to retard the wetting process, so no surprise here. For example a connector might have hard gold plating at the mating surface, but not at t

Zinc from the brass diffuses into the solder and reacts with tin causing dezincification. Dezincification is a specific type of de-alloying, or selective, leaching corrosion of brass fittings. This type of corrosion selectively removes zinc from th

We produce several boards with reflowed components on top and bottom. We are finding the solder has wetted to the leads but did not flow completely to the end of the lands. Several factors/causes?: 1) Board warping but paste deposits look good. 2) Mo

We are seeing problems with platinum over silver plated part also. Our main problem is solder splatter under these devices, and voiding at the terminations on parts off the reels.I am curious if you have removed any of these parts and noticed any spl
