Does anyone out there have experience soldering with Pb solder (Sn 63 or Sn 62) to SAC 305 coated PCB lands (about 50um) or Sn-Cu plated lands (about 10um). I know soldering Pb free (Sac based soler) to Pb/Sn coated lands is a no-no, but was waonderi

Good Morning, One problem of LF BGA's in a leaded process is the temps required to propperly collapse the BGA balls. If the BGA is LF, the alloy of the balls will not reflow until the temp reaches 217-245 C. SN 63/37 reflows at 183 C. If your profil

Can anyone help? Our Solder bar suppier is discontinuing the Sn63 Pb37 solder that they currently supply us. Another company has offered us a 'direct replacement' which is their own Sn63 Pb37 solder bar. The only problem I have with this is that the

Hi, we are about to change solder paste for cost issue. Currently using a no clean Sn63 solder paste and tried several others, all no clean, Sn63 and Sn62. Want to ask about reliability test: we did thermal shock test for 8 days. The flux residue cha

I've had a lot of experience with solder spatter. It's usually related to moisture (humidity) uptake by the paste, or outgassing from plating: particularly Au/Ni. Solder spatter from the plating will change from board-vendor to board-vendor. I shoul

Ladies and Gents: There have been several ways discussed in the trade press and in papers re: how to seperate/keep seperate Sn63 and l-f hand soldering tools. Some claim comepletel seperate hand soldering tools are required, while others claim that

I assume you are talking about Sn62Pb36Ag2 solder. You should not see any added concerns when subjecting Sn62 to multiple reflow cycles as compared to Sn63. As compared to Sn63Pb37: Reduced leaching issues Increased Wetting due to lo

A no-clean paste with an above average amount of halides should do the trick. Kester EP256HA is a good choice for this application if you are using a leaded alloy (Sn63 or Sn62).
