.025" pitch so the only problem we run into is too much HASL on the adhesive side causing improper glue dispense. | As Earl keeps saying HASL thickness is hard to impossible to control. I think we need to look hard at OSP's again but then you get in

| Hi folks , | Lately we are seeing a lot of rawcards with black spots on the pads - most of them have Au finish(immersion gold) . We did a lot of inspecton after wave solder and found that only (fine pitch) QFP are affected the most. Our inspection

| We are using .040" diameter fiducials (global and local) on our boards. They are solder covered and HASL. I get batches of boards where the p&p vision system has trouble reading the fiducial. The fiducial looks dark on the screen. The board ven

Solder Wetting Problems, Need Referee's

Electronics Forum | Tue May 31 10:44:16 EDT 2005 | Scott B

We have found that when the HASL thickness is less than 5 microns the tin in the HASL reacts with the copper leaving a SnCu surface with poor solderability and microscopic grainy Pb islands. The IPC does not specify minimum HASL thickness but we now

How compatible is SN100C wave on SAC305 hasl pcb or vice-versa?

Electronics Forum | Mon May 29 23:39:11 EDT 2006 | Faizal

Can anyone advice me on the effect of SN100C wave solder on SAC305 hasl board? I suppose the silver content on the hasl pcb would leech(contaminate) into solder pot.? Would it affect the surface bonding between copper pad and the solder.?

SMD flatness standard

Electronics Forum | Fri Nov 17 14:36:17 EST 2006 | Fer

Good afternoon all, There is an issue in my company regarding flatness on SMDs. The part I am fabricating is a multilayer assembly of .175" by .175" by .049" thick. The part is made out of a multilayer copper clad PTFE with a tin finish surface. Af

PCB Gold Pad Corrosion

Electronics Forum | Mon May 15 13:05:31 EDT 2017 | edhare

Pin holes in the gold can allow for corrosion of the underlying nickel and copper to form copper and nickel oxides on the gold surface (example - http://www.semlab.com/blog/?p=564. The corrosion can work itself all the way through the EN layer (exam
