Is there not an issue with reflowign the SAC ball's in term's of drivign up the lead contect in a lead free joint that increases the risk of failure in them? certainly dramatically increases voiding... have some pictures of soem that a customer tried

The European WEEE has issued a new (5th) version of its recommendations. In it they say that , on January 1st, 2004, they will review the status of the Pb-Free issue. There is currently NO DEADLINE for implementation. As far as a direct replacemen

We are also having some issues with certain small parts. In our case this is tantalum caps and 0402 caps. We had a vendor admit after much discussion that the plating used from a particular orgin was different on the tantalums. The tehory is thatthsi

Splitting hairs, I expect SIR of all solderability protection, including OSP, to decrease after reflow. What�s more, I expect the SIR of all solderability protection to pretty much decrease over time. The �comb pattern� test specimens meet requirem

With Pb-Free HASL you can't use Pb process for sure as the melting point of tin is so much higher than the lead paste process. SAC305 is the most popular compound, unless your assembly requires something else for a specific reason.

Yes, we can't use pure Pb PROCESS. And as I say we will not use it anyway, as we have lead-free BGA's, LGAs, component with Solder Charged Terminations... It's became almost normal practice to solder it with leaded solder pastes. In this case peak re

Not following the lead paste process window has a whole set of risks for joints quality and reliability.

SAC305 Will be the best choice with minimum TAL, Maximum Soak Solder Profile. Surely your solder Joint strength also will be more reliable & This can pass any kind of reliable Tests.

Want to update this question a little, I know it appears few years ago, but I hope there is some updates... We have to assembly few samples of motherboards with this kind of finish (customer mistake during pcb order). Normally we can use leaded sold

I have done it different ways on different equipment. 1. Remove alloy one from the machine. Add alloy two only. and use it.For next board, do the same. 2. There are machines with separate sections for PB and PC-Free, so pots are away from each other
