Jacqueline, Asuming you mean immersion silver: Advantages - Very flat finish compared to HASL, more easily solderable than bare copper with OSP and more process tolerant than this in our experience, reasonable shelf life, cheaper than immersion gol

John, We regularly wave solder electroless silver finished boards (Alpha Level)with mixed SMD and through hole parts and do not have any problems. We have changed a number on PCB's from HASL to electroless silver, mainly for the benefits at SMD whe

Strange as we have had huge problems with Silver in Many different Assembly houses. Mainly with Nitric Acid based Silvers causing blow holes, non wetting and even the Nitric etching away the tracks on fine boards. It has been one of the main problem
