What you are most likely dealing with: Insufficient Pure Sn layer ( multiple causes ) Because elevated temperatures accelerate the diffusion process, the thickness of the Pure Sn layer will reduce during every thermal cycle... ( bakeing PCBs, S

Hi, I'm experiencing a problem on a standard part made many times before -Ni/Au finish PCB, Reflow 100% SMD parts. After reflow the gold on the pads does not fully fuse with the solder paste it remains intact on the extremities of the pads, it seems

Jeong Ju-young You touched them all up with an iron? Wow! We have also had similar issues. What I did to prove there was a board problem was paste one & reflow one bare board with the same chem (noclean) we saw the non-wetting condition. Then applied
