Hi, Does anybody know what is the minimum gold plating thickness on the PCB goldfinger required by the industrial specifications - IPC, Bellcore, etc. Where can I find the information? Appreciate for the help! Thanks, Tony

Hello, I am looking for some advice please about how to go about plating some brass pins for a new assembly. (which will be hand soldered) I have spoken to a couple of "experts" who seem to contradict themselves.. Firstly what should I be solderin

Zinc from the brass [Cu3Zn2] diffuses into the tin causing solderability problems. Just 0.001% of Zn in your solder can render it fit for the scrap heap. So, you need a barrier plate between the brass and the tin. Copper or nickel-plating is commonl

Good afternoon, Typical plating thickness for immersion tin is 0.6-1.0um. I do not know what the maximal thickness is. But plating is self-limiting process and I believe maximal thickness should be about 2-3um. BR, Pavel

We know from experiments that the structure of Sn can be manipulatedby means revese pulse-plating. This means alayer with less pits and thus a lower mminimum thickness is needed. www.ppcs.nu

We have parts that have electroplated tin over nickel. The mfg. assures us the minimum thickness of the tin is 5 microns. Cross sections have shown many instances of 1 micron and pits that go down to the nickel barrier layer. A request for thicker

First, we'd like to see your supplier's minimum Sn thickness to be increased to 10um. Look here for support of this position: http://www.psma.com/HTML/FILES/forums/leadfree/hp_ext_pos_sn_for_pbfree.pdf Second, increasing the thickness of tin: * Ra

Questions are: * What is the current plating on the connector that is over the "plating of the leads is Nickel (99.9% purity)"? * What are the temperatures and durations at those temperatures that you read on these connector leads? * What solder allo
