Hi I recently having problems on the components having non wetting on the flex circuits. The profile that I am using is according to the solder paste suppiler recommended. Can anyone pls. advise? Regards

You need to verify if you're getting up to the needed temps. It looks like you're not. I'd say it started to reflow but never reached a long enough time. Nitrogen may help with further wetting.

Are you sure you're getting enough paste on the pads? It looks like you may not have enough flux to get the solder to wet properly.

Sorry I misled you. The PCB pads are wetting, but there is no fillet being formed. After reflow, it looks as though no paste was put down on the pads; however the paste print is fine. All other components solder real nice, it's only the Pd-Ag parts t

Print a number of pads of the 0603 on to a ceramic substrate. Then place the 0603 on the paste on the ceramic and refow. If the paste shows no wetting onto the component it will prove that there is a problem with the components solderability.

hi All, Here i snap shot previous PCB(HASL) and current PCB(Immersion Silver).Base on the photo it could be PCB oxidize cause the non wetting?

IPC calls out 100% wetting to land. I need to understand why this is needed and what functionality I will lose if I have joints at 80%

A-610G 7.5.16 Components with Bottom Thermal Plane Terminations (D-Pak) says: 100% wetting to land in the end-joint contact area. Is that what you're asking about? Regards, David Fish [davef] Technical Editor & Customer Advocate

I have a customer with up to 8% scrap from one board supplier and 1% from another supplier for solder dewett and no wet over ENIG finish with mask defined pads. Initially I suspected mask residue on pads because of the no wets but I have come to find

A-620G doesn't require 100% wetting to the thermal pad. It requires 100% wetting to the land in the end-joint area. The end joint is the portion of the solder connection that is at the top [or bottom] of the connection. Look at 7.1.3 Solder Joint A
