This is an old topic, but keeps coming up. Solderability and reliability issues with SMT gold plated terminations when used with tin/lead solder paste/hassle finish PWB. I need to know which standard (mil, IPC, J-STD??) tells you all about the probl

Your vendor site is totally correct. 2Ag is an excellent solder, but it does nothing to prevent tin and gold from reacting chemically. An earlier poster is correct gold goes into solution in liquid solder very fast, less than a second. Gold and ti

To the best of my knowledge and experience the 2 % Ag component is not for embrittlement but rather to reduce gold scavenging caused by the propensity for tin to react with the gold. I have seen eutectic tin/lead actually disolve gold wire after a f

Well, if it "keeps coming up", let's take a pass at keeping down. For: * Requirement that gold be removed from components, pads, etc. is J-STD-001C, 5.4.1 * Context of that requirement [J-STD-001C, 5.4.1] and 6 or 7 references are in IPC-HDBK-001.

> What is the use of gold plated boards? <BR> <BR> With the increasing integration of IC, the more IC the more dense. The vertical tin spray process is difficult to flatten the pads, which brings difficulty to the SMT mounting, and

| We have some SMT components with gold plated leads. They're actually LCC led packages. A good solder alloy to use would be Indium / Lead to reduce tin dissolution into the gold and avoid the resultant brittle intermetallic compound. However, a reco

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?
