Is anyone using standard FR-4 material for ROHS? All I have ever seen to indicate the need to go to a high tg/td board is that the material may fail after repeted rework. I have a customer that is trying to use IS-410 and it is causing electrical pro

I believe this is the case for the new,high performance LCPs(liquid crystal polymers),which are unique in their stiff,relatively thermally immobile structures.For other materials with higher Tg values than FR4,the basic relationship holds,but expansi

You should do some testing what temp you really get. Solder will melt 260~300ºC. Back to the initial question, CEM-3 is a bit harder to buy and has not many varieties. Go for FR4, you can go for a higher Tg then the common 130ºC. There is also 140,

| Any info on the pros and cons of FR4 or Polyamide ref the use of soldering PGAs would be helpful. ie. temp co-efficient diffs, baking, wave soldering, Convection reflow etc | I'm sure you know all the basic differences as Tg, X, Y, and Z expansi

Regarding glass transition , does anyone have expierance glass wiht transition temperature specification , such as what are the detrimental effects of exceeding the Tg , how long over the glass transition temperature ,if any , is acceptable. Tg of di

To make it even more compicated, you have CTE before Tg and after Tg, altough the after Tg is way more important, because the expantion ratio will be much bigger, a pcb supplier will usually give the before Tg value. To come back to the delamination

What is the minimum Tg for FR4 board to consider as Lead Free board? My issue is, I do not know what is the web for the V-Score for a FR4 Tg 180. I use to use a FR4 Tg 140 and there is no problem with it, but since we convert to Lead Free and the

Mike: I�d hate to see you making design decisions, based solely on the discussion here, but that this would be an impetus to consult IPC-D-279, "Design Guidelines ... " and take a course on designing reliable boards. Werner Engelmaier (Engelmaier

I can�t imagine a high trace count, high via count ceramic board matching-up on price with a FR4 board. http://www.coorstek.com/coorstek/coorstek.asp?menu=literature&reference=literature.asp But that�s not really the issue, is it? The issue is the r
