Scott, I am a little confused, when you mention "silver thru hole vs. plated through hole what do you mean. A silver "immersion" type finish vs. HASL (Tin lead)on your PCB? Or are you talking about using silver solder to perform intrusive reflow of

| | | We are wave soldering some fabs with a lot of unmasked trace area along the edges. The trace area is solid copper covered with tin / lead, no masking, no components along the edges, same on solder side and component side (goofy board design).

Are you refering to MacDermid Sterling Silver finish or immersion silver in general. We have had enquiries about Sterling Silver from a customer and the blurb I have read looks very good (don't most sales literature). Has anyone tried this finish? O

We need more information to give you a good answer. Is this a leaded part (axial or radial) or smt? How big is the part, how much weight per lead? What is the end use environment, will it see any vibration? or temperature extremes? Some general com

Matt: You're correct. Do not mess with these boards. If the immersion tin [imm tin] is discolored, it will not solder with routine processes. Ask your customer to return the boards to his / her fabricator and have the imm tin replated. The fabri

9. * Conversion coatings are very nice "paints" that allow other paints to stick to aluminum. Type 1 coatings are thicker than Type 3, which are whisper thin. Alodine 120X (Amchem) and Iridite 14-2 (Allied Research Products) are good conversion coa

Hi Adam, We had a reverse of the previous - if we didn't have our smartwave running at at least 750 RPM behind the main wave, the pressure dropped & gave us inconsistant soldering. Otherwise... 1) are the components tarnished at all, or stored in

Hi, Yes, we just built a new plant, and used copper again. The stuff we cut out of the old building was copper, and it was fine without any issues. We lay it on an angle so condensation flows to an end, and can be periodically vented, and we take a
