I was recently given a copy of the "Tin Whisker Agency Action Notice" I was then asked to recommend and implement a action to prevent the suseptible components from reaching our stockroom. Since I can not commit my personel to activly research which

I have a customer who has put a restriction against pure tin finish components. We have gotten our BOMs compliant with all but 5 parts. Fairchild p/n FDD6512A, FQD12N20C, IRLM120A Bournes 3214G-1-501E Sprague 10TS-D10 I am looking for a standard pr

There is none. That's why aerospace is exempt.

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

Most component fabricators don't properly understand the impact of soldering with pure tin solderability protection on components. Here's one that does: "The Effects of Board Attachment Processing on Sn Whisker Formation on Electroplated Matte-Sn on

Primary differences between Matte Tin plating and Bright Tin plating are: * Temperature compatibility ** Matte Tin is compatible with the elevated temperatures of lead-free, reflow processing (250-260C). ** Bright Tin has a tendency to discolor (turn
