Hi Dave, The peak temp on the leads is 216-218 Deg C and duration above MP (179 degC) is 55-60 sec. Alloy(solder paste) used 62 Sn,36 Pb 2Ag (Alpha WS 609 Ty 3 Water eash) This is a SMT connector wth Gulwing leads Gold plating on the PCB is 2-5 micr

You bet our reponse changes. Q2R: Hard gold thickness is 4 to 10 u" for Au and 300 to 400 u" for nickel A2R: This is a hard gold spec?? It looks like a ENIG spec. Although, the Ni is quite heavy, 150 uin is sufficient for most applications. The gol

For soldered areas, we like to keep gold thickness substantially below the maximum you propose. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for our discussions on the topic of acceptable levels of gold with solder connections. Let�s fix this �no one seems be s

We have a PCB with the dual sided connector that slides on from the edge and has leads on the top and bottom sides of the PCB. It has 20 leads on each side of the PCB with with about .8mm pitch. The PCB also has a gold grounding strip on the edge fo

Does anyone know if I will have problems soldering surface mount components to an all hard gold plated PC board. We want to use hard gold similar to gold used for edge fingers because our customer is concerned about wear and conductivity of connector

We'd suggest using your connector supplier recommendations. Some use: * Pad Plating: 20-30 uin Au over 50 uin Ni (You might get away with less gold) * In-Pad Vias: less than half the diameter of the button (for contact-only configurations) * PCB/C
