Sure you can use it it with leaded HASL. Recognize that ... * Your Sn42/Bi58 will no linger be Sn42/Bi58 * Your leaded HASL will no longer be the same leaded HASL that walked in the door to your plant * Lead from HASL coatings can diffuse through the

Rick, my understanding is that the US do not have plan's fr lead free legislation. However the European legislation states that any product entering the european market after June 2006 must meet the lead free std's of the directive. So basically if

Hi everybody, We have wave solder fixtures made of Durapol and multiple wave solder machines. Most likely we�ll use the same pallets for either tin-lead or lead-free solder for a while (of course after washing the pallets). Should we test the palle

The data we have is from an IBM report. Below 100�C the SAC reliability is almost double that of SnPb (-40 to 100�C thermal cycle). When the upper end temp is increased to 125�C the reliability drops to 75% of SnPb. I'd like to see the data that s
