Russ makes a good point. While your profile probably meets your paste supplier recommendations, it may not be proper for the component. * Paste suppliers offer general recommendations for tin / lead interconnects. You need to modify that for board

1. If I go to the Pb-free solder paste, is it necessary that I have to change my reflow oven OR just by changing with respect to solder paste specification, I can reach my goal? 2. What is the �Low- Temperature Phase� in any solder paste alloy? 3.W

I facing dewetting problem on Ag/Pd termination(chip component)during reflow process. The solder wetting is pull to terminal side and exhibits dewetting. Any one ever face the same problem and any solutions for the problem?

Good afternoon, Thanks for input AR. Fortunately, supplier can offer us nickel barrier alternative. I will do exactly as you did. BR, Pavel

I don't suggest using Pd/Ag or Ag/Pd terminated components unless you are forced to use them. You often see a line of demarcation that suggests a poorly wetted solder joint. I have had bad experiences with Pd/Ag terminated capacitors. Even when so

Pavel, We had exactly the same kind of problem with exactly the same type of component. Our components were well within their best before -date so it is not question of that. As we could not get it to work we changed to nickel barrier finish on the

I am being asked to perform the same evaluation now with a Au/Pd termination varistor. We currently use a Pb/Sn process with an RMA flux. The manufacturer of the device recommends going to a 2% silver paste. What is the intended advantage with 2%
