Td - is the degradation temperature for a laminate (board), while Tg - is glass transition one. There is one more (even more important) - delta Tg. They characterize the quality of the laminate material. Regards, Vlad www.sentec.ca

Tell the board shop to increase the cure temp of the resist as it is undecured especially if you have waxy/greasy resiues on the board and a brown tar like substence in the solder wave itself. If undercured then solder will not flow off the resist pr

We saw this one time when we were trying to develop some lead-free product. It ended up being copper migration. Some of the pads had a brown discoloration and those that did would not wet very well. Your elemental analysis would have shown if ther
