Yes, we can't use pure Pb PROCESS. And as I say we will not use it anyway, as we have lead-free BGA's, LGAs, component with Solder Charged Terminations... It's became almost normal practice to solder it with leaded solder pastes. In this case peak re

Ryan ... "As for bismuth-based lead-free alloys, a lower melting temperature than that of tin-lead is offered together with a cost similar to that of tin [in the area of $3/lb]. Unfortunately, bismuth in soldering alloys tends to create embrittlemen

Nelco was developed by Park [ http://www.parknelco.com/parknelco/highspeed.htm ] Without fairly involved testing, you may be forced to rely on a c of c from your fabricator. Although, Park may be able to give you a lead.

Has anyone out there done any lead free testing using a Vitronics Unitherm 500 oven? based on the specs I have dug up on the machine I suspect it should work fine but it would be great to hear from someone that has done it. Thanks in advance.

SAC305 Will be the best choice with minimum TAL, Maximum Soak Solder Profile. Surely your solder Joint strength also will be more reliable & This can pass any kind of reliable Tests.

Kris, I assume with voids you mean acceptable solder coverage of pad and lead. As Dave mentioned I also have not seen any specific studies on voids, but workman ship standards exist about acceptable coverage of pad and lead (both consumer and MIL)

Thanks Dave Will appreciate if any body has any published information on a study they did for voids in leaded devices Will try to talk to them Dave

No, there is no such information. Choices are: * Recognize that any voiding is a process indicator and that when observed, indicate a requirement for taking corrective steps. * Tell your quality people to quit looking at components other than BGA wi

For packages, you use packages names.There is only one SOIC8. The other 8-lead devices are there and it is your job to learn their names. For components descision should be made based you your whole(part number)system.

Thank you all for your input. The MF300S Multicore flux is rated for lead free. There is not much dross or contamination. We are using nitrogen. I've tested the boards with the curing test of IPC-TM-650. I think you're all right about the preheat.
