Silver bearing alloys have been used in electronics soldering for many years. Silver has been used in tin-lead solders (Sn62Pb36Ag2) to combat silver scavenging from silver plated electronic components as well as to improve thermal fatigue resistance. Many of the common lead-free alloys contain some amount of silver. Silver bearing alloys have good electrical and thermal conductivity as well as the ability to wet to the common surface finishes used in printed wiring assemblies, thus giving it all the attributes needed for an electronic solder alloy. Presence of silver in Sn based solders increases the bulk solder modulus and is generally believed to improve resistance to fatigue from thermal cycles. Increased solder modulus can be advantageous or disadvantageous depending on the desired performance attribute. For example in high strain rate situations, higher modulus of the bulk solders results in lower life time. A wide variety of leaded and lead-free

Solder powder size is a popular topic in the electronics industry due to the continuing trend of miniaturization of electronics. The question commonly asked is "when should we switch from Type 3 to a smaller solder powder?" Solder powder size is usually chosen based on the printing requirements for the solder paste. It is common practice to use IPC Type 4 or 5 solder powders for stencil designs that include area ratios below the recommended IPC limit of 0.66. The effects of solder powder size on printability of solder paste have been well documented. The size of the solder powder affects the performance of the solder paste in other ways. Shelf life, stencil life, reflow performance, voiding behavior, and reactivity / stability are all affected by solder powder size. Testing was conducted to measure each of these solder paste performance attributes for IPC Type 3, Type 4, Type 5 and Type 6 SAC305 solder powders in both water soluble and no clean solder pastes. The performance data for each size of solder powder in each solder paste flux was quantified and summarized. Guidance for choosing the optimal size of solder powder is given based on the results of this study.

Tin plating on a component lead makes its soldering easier. Everybody knows that. Not so well known is that tin plating has shelf life -- its ability to be easily soldered degrades over time. the speed and severity of degradation depends both on storage conditions and on the plating itself...
