Anyone know of a paste supplier that can provide the 42Sn/1Ag/57Bi alloy? Supposedly HP has done some work with this specific alloy and we would like to evaluate it. Neither Alpha Metals or Kester can supply it.

Alpha Metals sells a paste developed especially for 0201's and 0.5 mm pitch BGA's. I have no idea if if does what it promises, but it might be worth to give it a try. See http://www.alphametals.com/omnixsolder/pdfs/OM_6106.PDF
