As long as the surface is solderable, you should be fine. Silver tarnish a well0-known thing. Make sure, though, there is no sulfur (S) "around". Regards, Vlad

We see this fairly often. It doesn't affect solderability. Our analysis makes us think this coloration is copper. The reason copper appears on the surface may be that heat cycles increase the thinness and porosity of the immersion silver [IAg] coatin

If there is a way to pre-tin the parts, that might help in forming better joint with gold.

Could be lots of things. With limited information about temperatures, solder alloy, and cleaning; we'll swing for the fence that you got these solder connections very hot. So hot that Pb oxide is dominating the solder joint surface instead of the

We had a solder joint problem in gold plated PLCC68 ic. We do double sided reflow process with Cookson OL107F paste. First we do top with paste and second with glue process.The solder joint shape and wetting looked normal.In the process of testing

The reliability of a Gullwing component solder joint is in question when insufficient solder is evident: *at the heel of the lead *at the toe of the lead *none of the above

Hi... We tend to do a lot of footprint calculating for new SMD components. But what about the amount of solder paste on the solder pads. The amount of solder alloy is of cause determined by the stencil aperture size, stencil thickness and the sold

You can use the IPC-7525, Stencil Design Guidelines for start up.

Thanks for support. Is it any special process of pre-tinng? Regards, Anil wagh.
