All, We know that incomplete immersion silver could potentially lead this creeping corrosion. Is there any way to check bare PCB for incomplete immersion silver coverage, especially on the via hole area? Thanks, Sean.

I have used both immersion silver and immersion gold and found that the immersion silver performed better in reliability studies for BGA's using 63/37 paste.

Companies that license immersion silver technology to board fabricators are: * Alpha Level Silver * Mac Dermid Sterling [Mac Dermid's TM]

Never changed anytihgn when we switched to Immersion silver. Have run approximatelky 10,000 16mil pitch devices to date with immersion Silver PCB, stainless, chempolished 5 mil stencil, and pbfree paste (OM338). Russ

We have a double sided board with Immersion Silver Plating. After reflow the Silver turns a yellowish color. It still wets good, and the yellow color will polish off with a pencil eraser. Has anyone seen this, or know the cause?

IPC Plating Committee is presently working on a specification for immersion tin [IPC-4554 Specification for Immersion Tin Plating for Printed Circuit Boards] as a solderable surface finish. Immersion tin is normally deposited at 30 to 60 microinches.

Grant, i have heard of a few cases where the PCB is "reworked" by the PCB house, where the immersion silver that did not wet to the base copper was reworked by just putting immersion silver on top of the non-wetted immersion silver. I know your PCB

Are you seeing this on bare PCBs or after assembly? with Immersion silver, the finish over the copper should be very thin and uniform, that's the main advantage of ImAg. You should not be seeing excess plating filling vias unless: A)Its HASL, not

Sorry, wrong technical word I meant immersion silver (Ag). Thanks.
