Hi We are trying to solder a a contact whose base material is stainless steel, this is then nickel striked with a gold plating of upto 3 microns. We are trying to hand solder this to a standard 1.6 FR4 PCB with a HASL finish. We are seeing problems

Hi Ryan, Standard shelf life for FR4 Non-RoHs & Rohs material with HASL or Lead Free HASL would be 12 months + in a controlled environment. on all RoHs materials over 6 months, we would suggest your board shop run a solder ability test before ship

I will be building a board, about 8 X 12 , .062" thick using a standard FR406 stackup. It has a variety of devices, including CCBGA , CBGA and PBGA's. Given the challenge of developing a reflow profile that will accomodate both ceramic and plastic BG

TM, When picking a material for your lead free assembly you need to think about a couple of things, The standard Material in the US that is being used is running 140 - 170 tg. material. But for lead free assembly you need to focus on is Decomp tem

| | I am looking for a rule of thumb regarding the maximum ramp standard components (chip capacitors) can tolerate without failure during the reflow process. The standard seems to be 3C\second, but this figure is generally derived from the average r

Hello, Our PWB supplier has requested that a change in the laminate material to reduce the incidence of pad lifting. The standard laminate materials (Polyclad PCL-FR-226 with a glass transition temperature of 135 C) have greater z-axis thermal expan

| Now don't everyone jump on this at once, but it seems time for me to send out copies of my not even close to being dated copy of an article about HASL. Though it was published in 1992, in Printed Circuit Fabrication Magazine, and it got rave review
