Environmental testing is a very useful tool in ensuring product reliability. We have an environmental laboratory that can assist with every aspect of this testing. Our capabilities begin with test planning with the customer and proceed to execution
Qualification of boards and assemblies is the comparison of the board or assembly to an industry standard. Specifically, we qualify printed circuit boards to IPC-6012 – Qualification and Performance Specifications for Rigid Printed Boards and

I work for a medium sized electronic manfacturing company that is looking into potentially purchasing our own piece of steam aging equipment, but I am having trouble locating manufacturers. So far I have only found H&H Engineering in Stockton, CA. D

Davd, Thats what first came to my mind when I was asked to do this task, the old train belching out climbing the last hill towards town ;) H&H Engineering has what used to be Mountain Gate's line of steam aging equipment. They are at 209-475-0693

ENIG, electroless nickel immersion gold is now a well-regarded finish used to enhance and preserve the solder-ability of copper circuits. EPIG, electroless palladium immersion gold, is a new surface finish also for enhancing and preserving solder-ability but with the advantage of eliminating Electroless Nickel from the deposit layer. This feature has become increasingly important with the increasing use of high frequeny PWB designs whereby nickel's magnetic properties are detrimental. We examine these two finishes and their respective soldering characteristics as plated and after steam aging and offer an explanation for the performance deviation.

The solderability of a nickel-palladium-gold (Ni-Pd-Au) finish on a Cu substrate was evaluated for the Pb-free solder, 95.5Sn-3.9Ag-0.6 Cu (wt.%, abbreviated Sn-Ag-Cu) and the eutectic 63Sn-37 Pb (Sn-Pb) alloy. The solder temperature was 245ºC. The flux was a rosin-based mildly activated (RMA) solution. The Ni-Pd-Au finish was tested in the as-fabricated condition as well as after exposure to one of the following accelerated storage (shelf life) regiments: (1) 33.6, 67.2, or 336 hours in the Battelle Class 2 flowing gas environment or (2) 5, 16, or 24 hours of steam aging (88ºC, 90%RH).
