| Hey yooze guys! | Enough of the jokes between you and Earl (GRIN), let's get back to the topic...well, okay... you can tell a few more...(but good ones, 'kay?) | Anyhoo...I'm not sure if ya'll are on the IPC Technet list or not, I've not seen any p

| Yes l know this problem keeps cropping up on the forum but l've missed some of the follow-ups. | | Our problem is that the lifting only occurs on 3% of production so actually detecting an improvement is difficult. We're actually having to inspect

The assumption that a HASL Sn63 PCB can be soldered with SAC solder paste is likely a bad one. The board itself is likely FR4 which can be damaged by lead free temperatures. The HASL finish isn't an issue from the perspective of it's makeup and actu

In switching to lead free processing, we find ourselves having over 400 PCB part numbers with Sn63 HASL finish. And there is no hope of quickly purging inventory and getting our drawings changed to call out a lead free finish. I want to avoid having

| I am wave soldering a single sided through hole PCB array with (6) .040" round diameter pins that sit .5" off the PCB, and .080" apart. The problem being experienced is that solderballs are appearing on the end of the pins. I have tried decreasin

We switched our PCB's to 170Tg over 10 years ago, so we're probably good to go on the temperature aspect. Thanks for the opinion on the added lead content.

Mile, Please tell me more about your soldering process: - Are soldering process parameters the same for all three pins? - Is unsoldered pin connected to thermal heavy copper polygon? - What is your board surface finish? HASL? - Sn/Pb or LF process?

John, We regularly wave solder electroless silver finished boards (Alpha Level)with mixed SMD and through hole parts and do not have any problems. We have changed a number on PCB's from HASL to electroless silver, mainly for the benefits at SMD whe
