The immersion silver is an active surface and readily combines with sulfur from the environment. Silver sulfide tarnishes the surface and creates doubt about the integrity of the finish at inspection. [uyemura.com/library-4.htm] Your customer's boar

Our Customer had detected tarnished pad on ImAg PCBA and had conducted several SEM-EDX test at the soldermask below some of the chip resistors. High concentration of sulfur was found and it can be significantly reduced after further chemical cleaned

Yes, electronics manufacturing is a volume producer of cardboard waste. If the components are ESD-critical, cardboard and most plastics are not ESD safe. Static charges can be generated on these materials during handling by the friction of dissimila

Hi All, I have few questions about creeping corrosion that potentially happen on lead free immersion silver PCB as below: 1) What test that we can conducted to verify whether the failure we seen is due to creeping corrosion? 2) I heard that lead fr

References on corrosion are: * "ASM Corrosion Handbook No. 13" [0871700077]. * "Electronic Packaging and Corrosion" ME Nicholson [0871702916]. Please explain how you determined that you have silver-sulfide contamination. Where is the silver comin

Yes, "corrosion" should be on your buyers spec for ESD mats. ESD mats are another one of those sneaky little gotcha things, where it's easy to think that all blue mats are the same. Kapon tape is another one where you can't purchase strictly based

All of the discussion of "environmental controls" are a matter of degree, dependent on the requirements of the product that you manufacture. For example: shops assembling under-the-hood products have different requirements than shops making garage d
