First, we expect voiding in imm silver to be similar to ENIG. We expect more voiding in OSP than other common solderability protection. Second, choosing a solder paste, which does not contain resins and activators that decompose at higher temperatu

From several months I am investigation about the VOIDS PERSENCE and his important as reliability. One question now is : It is possible that on the BGA components the voids are already present into the balls, before the mounting on the pcb ? If you ha

Hello, Has anyone had issues with voiding while using Imm Silver PCB finish. Does thickness of silver, contamination of the plating bath or other factors if you come point out cause voids due to the plating.

Some amount of voiding was always seen on sites where solder paste is printed. These voids are much smaller. However the site where a flip chip is flux dipped has never had problems with voiding. Macro voids (and huge ones at that)across the board s

Does anyone have any experience they are willing to share on Ag epoxy used as a copper through hole plating replacement? Was CEM3 used? What are the limitations? Thanks, Steve

Since we follow IPC Class III, I've done experiments turning N2 on and off and measuring void level with both SnPb and SAC305 solder. In both cases there was a statistically significant, measurable increase in voids with N2, but it wasn't significan
