Craig. i spoke with a process engineer today and he told me that if you mix pb and non pb it may work but may cause premature failures if in a thermal cycleing environment. failure cause may be micro fractures.

Questions are: * When you rework these pads, can you get solder to flow on the pads with a soldering iron? * When you profile the board during reflow, what is the temperature on these pads as compared with other similar pads in the vicinity?

Matthew: That you can get solder flow when hand soldering, but not when reflow soldering, seems to be telling you that you're not getting the connection warm enough during reflow. You need to have those connections liquidous + 20*C for at least 5 sec

Dave Thanks for the input. The thermocouple read 244 on the pad of the socket. We actually found after extensive investigation that it is the coplanarity of the leads. We were shipped a bad batch of sockets form the manufacture. Go figure!!1

Craig - You should not use the leaded parts, as you are, in all likelyhood, going to see massive voiding. We just went through this same deal where I work, because a manufacturer sent us the incorrect parts. You can go with lead free parts with regul

Hi Craig: I agree with muse. The problems almost always will show up later on duringg life cycles in terms of reliability problems. While the solder joints may look acceptable right after production there is no guarantee of meeting the reliability r

MKS, You do not need to reach a temp of 245C to form a joint and surely not for 0603s. Since you are using such a high temp your flux is getting dried out.. Also if you are going to reach a peak of 245C on a brd that has Sn/Pb compt and Pb-free.. yo

You have 2 groups giving us 'evidence' here: 1. the research companies who will do anything to scare us, just to make sure more research will be done, if they said everting was fine they'ld be out of a job in a sec. Ex: look at that paper, a leaded
