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

I have recently come across a device which has a palladium over nickel finish which when soldered shows evidence of poor wetting to the lead ( i.e. a wetting angle greater than 90�) about three quarters of the way up the side of lead. This is only vi

Does anyone have any experience with fired-silver/platinum/palladium lead terminations soldering. I have had issues on nickel over gold plated boards but not with HASL'd boards with tin/lead pads. Is this the norm?

Yes, norm it is. Look back to February 98 discussion on this issue.

Are we possibly talking palladium instead of platinum? I haven't yet heard of platinum terminations (seems expensive) If it is palladium over nickel, I can tell you that you need to reach 225-230 Deg. C in reflow and the TAL should be about 90 sec.

I agree with Chrys, get the spike temp up and wetting is not a problem. However, when the palladium mixes in with the solder the joint will become more brittle. You need to make sure enough solder is printed on the board to minimize the concentrati
