do you mean microvoids or macrovoids??

Yes it does seem like a plating issue and analysis is being done. Thank you for your inputs.

First, we expect voiding in imm silver to be similar to ENIG. We expect more voiding in OSP than other common solderability protection. Second, choosing a solder paste, which does not contain resins and activators that decompose at higher temperatu

Is there any specific method or product available to implement FIFO system. Currently we stack all the D/C in a shelf and we don't have a method to pull the latest D/D first. I would appreciate any help in this regard. Sundaram

We saw this condition over 3 years ago. It sometimes is called "champagne bubbles". The intemetalic formation is interrupted due to the micro voiding reducing mechanical strength. I discovered this on lead free test vehicles for a major computer

We would be very wary of allowing 50 uinches, because this will likely result in reduced shelf life due to intermetallic growth. As a guesstimate, at least 10 uinches of that 50 uinches, and maybe more, is already intermetallic when you receive the b

There's a lots comparisons like this on the web. Here's one: Westwood Associates said on 8/12/2003: ||HASL||OSP||ENIG||Pd||Tin||Silver Flat||no||yes||yes||yes||yes||yes Solderjoint||Cu-Sn||Cu-Sn||Ni-Sn||Ni-Sn||Cu-Sn||Cu-Sn Contact||E-test, ICT||no|

Does anyone have any experience they are willing to share on Ag epoxy used as a copper through hole plating replacement? Was CEM3 used? What are the limitations? Thanks, Steve

It does make you think the immersion coating is causing the voiding, doesn't it? We never have seen that.
