From technical point of view: it should not be a problem to mix Pb with Pb Free components soldered with a LF solder process. You have to take care about the max temperature allowed on your Pb components and make sure they can withstand the higher

John, there have been quite a few discussion on Mixed Assemblies in this forum.. do a search.. you will get whole lot of information.. in addition - IF you are using Lead-free reflow profile...make sure the rated temp for Sn-Pb components is not vi

Watch the solder profiles allowed for these caps. Most electrolytics cannot withstand high heat. Even RoHS compliant Electrolytics are often rated for peak 245C, 3 secs max, for example. Nowhere close to the 260C 10-20 sec you usually like to see.

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

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

profile it for the tin/lead paste. The tin in the solder paste will begin to disolve the sac ball. This is exactly the same scenario as 90/10 (80/20)high temp balls found on ceramic bga and many super bga devices (except the sac balls are now tin r

Even with PbSn solderpaste the leadfree BGA's have a superior resistance to solder-joint fatigue failure when compared to conventional parts. [Solder Fatigue Reliability Issues in Lead Free BGA Packages, Pedro Chalco of IBM, Pan Pacific Microelectron
