Matt: You're correct. Do not mess with these boards. If the immersion tin [imm tin] is discolored, it will not solder with routine processes. Ask your customer to return the boards to his / her fabricator and have the imm tin replated. The fabri

Do we really need to follow the IPC J-STD-001 Solder purity? If so, how to effectively balance the chemistry of Sn63/Pb37 other than adding a pure tin on the solder bath? Is this really needed to monitor in monthly basis?How many kgs of pure tin pe

Keep in mind that you may need to assure that there are no pure tin finishes remaining on your parts. A general idea is that parts with pure tin (RoHs) finish will need to be plated with tin-lead solder to avoid the possibility of tin whiskers formi

You might want to check the tin thickness. I believe you have a minimum of .65 microns in order to achieve a good solder joint through 3 thermal passes. In an immersion tin process, the ability to solder is time and temperature dependant. As the int
