OK, now let me ask the really dopey question ... so if the irregularity of the HASL surface is punching holes in the thermal gasket and causing shorts to the heat sink, why are you putting solder on that surface? I wonder how the thermal conductivit

Wow, someone read the fine SMTnet Archives!!!! Scary, get their name!!! [OK, I�ll stop ... Several points are: * Most of the stuff in the fine SMTnet Archives is all the bad things that we can make-up to respond to the questions people ask. Ther

Hello all, Our company has always used HASL finish on our products. Recently however, we have a had a problem on a couple of boards that I have been told cannot be avoided with HASL, and we should switch to ENIG(electroless nickel immersion gold).

If this is same TennRich Type B [ http://www.tennrich.com/trtw/TR_PI_Prod_Info.php?pid=2 ] that is an EMI gasket, it needs to be glued with a conductive adhesive. It has the same thermal capability as a Snickers Bar, about 90*C top end.

Yes, providing the surface of the via is solderable. * If so, how much paste? => Vias come in various sizes. Boards vary in thickness. So, the amount of paste to fill a via varies. Roughly, you�ll need twice as much paste as the volume of the via

As a CM, we don’t have a lot of input on the PCB layouts we receive. Some engineers/software packages output the paste layer 1 to 1, some do an across the board reduction, and some set each part up individually with different reductions per footprin
