We are having solder fillet finish issue. The solder looks like rough solder on the connector leads .The plating of the leads is Nickel (99.9% purity) and the PCB plating is imersion gold. I have tried fine tuning my reflow profiles an have used N2 i

Hello, Our PWB supplier has requested that a change in the laminate material to reduce the incidence of pad lifting. The standard laminate materials (Polyclad PCL-FR-226 with a glass transition temperature of 135 C) have greater z-axis thermal expan

Just a guess-- Could you be seeing the nickel under the gold plating because you are removing some of the Gold with the Kapton Tape ? This should be easy to verify. Otherwise it sounds like things are pretty much covered.

The manual says to bake the edge chains at 400C to clean them. Is anybody doing this ? I need to take my edge chains to a heat treat facility to clean them ? I don't want to spray oven cleaner on them as they appear to be plated with nickel or so

Mika, 1.) Is there a maximum board thickness where it would be almost impossible to get a decent hole fil? Answer: The thicker the board the further the solder has to travel and the more you depend on solderability of boards and components, machine

Has anyone had any experience with 60/40 Sn/Ni(300 u in.) over Ni(300 u in.)? If so, what kind of solder issues might exist with 63/37 Sn/Pb reflow? Is a different paste needed? Also, what is the benefit of using the same platings with a top plating

Haaaaa!!!! Soldering to plastic!!!! An apt analogy!!! I like to compare it to soldering to dirt. Some thing. In fact, you are soldering on nickel, when soldering on many things. It�s just that the gold, er Pd, flash enables the wetting mechanism
