Hi guy Does anyone have experiance with printing problem between solder paste water soluble 62/36/2 and gold plating PCB? I do have problem about insufficient solder after printing although I used the same printing parameter as when I print with ano

I discovered that we have some gold plated (30 mico in.) through hole connectors which were Paste In Hole soldered (60 sec at reflow) on a HASL PCB. Do we have an embrittlement reliability issue? The calculated volume % of gold in the joints is about

Our company is going to use BGA(1.27mm pitch) But I have heard of troubles with P-BGA. It is that cracks occured between solderball and gold plating of PCB during ICT(incircuit test). We know that gold plating of PWB is not good for BGA, so we decide

The main advantage if ENIG over HASL is that ENIG is flat and HASL generally is not. The main disadvanages to ENIG over HASL are: * Cost of ENIG is 1.5 - 2X higher than HASL * Selflife is less than HASL * You solder to nickel, rather than copper * E

Hi, Is there a solder paste alloy espacially done to solder components on a pcb gold plated ??? I am using the AIM 297DX SN63/PB37 no clean and i had a comments from my customer telling me that i am not using the right alloy. Personally i never he

Thanks for the replies, - solder paste used ? NC ? other ? Water soluble 63/37 paste - reflow in Air or N2 ? Infrared - temp ramp up before soack (�C/second) ? Will have to check. This profile has been used on numerous gold plated boards in our

> What is the use of gold plated boards? <BR> <BR> With the increasing integration of IC, the more IC the more dense. The vertical tin spray process is difficult to flatten the pads, which brings difficulty to the SMT mounting, and

I'm not 100% sure which type of gold you're asking about, but if you're talking about hard gold plating, I think the most common use is to provide a durable surface for things like membrane switch contacts because it resists abrasion and other mechan

Flash gold is just thin gold plating over electroless nickel or electrolytic nickel. Flash gold is electrolytic gold where the panel is connected to a plating rectifier and current causes the plating process to occur. Gold thickness is controlled b

Voiding usually is caused by oxidation/impurities on the plating of part and or PCB. I know it is gold, but did you run any analysis for cleanliness of part plating? Couple of pictures will help everyone.
