This is one of the biggest mistakes with the Lead Free process. We have all listened to the 'industry experts' and followed their advice and unfortunately got it wrong. Keep the dwell times (dependant on alloy selection) the same as Leaded so you are

Muse, I agree. There has been much debate but the previous scenarios discussed in the forum have been regarding the SAC/RoHS BGA and Sn-Pb paste. I have successfully collapsed a SAC BGA with a Sn-Pb paste using the "hybrid" profile that Amol refers

Yes all above is correct, as solder deposits get smaller and mesh T4+ , actual metal to air contact surface area increases , say in contrast to T3, add to this less flux , and flux running away from the joint, re-oxidation and what flux is left, can

Hi Jacob, NC vs WS, what a story! No-clean paste means no-clean for your products but what a mess it makes in your reflow systems. If you are a contract maunufacturer of high volume production, then No-Clean is they way to go. This helps keep your co

The alloy I have chosen uses a wetting angle of 50-70 degrees. Different alloys have different properties. I coupled experimental data with what others have published. Nothing new here. As for reliability...I think you'll be surprised what lead fr

Hi, What are your thoughts about the article saying that the lead will leach out of the solder joint to the last place to cool, creating a weak point? I have two worries about the report. First, is that we have always used tin lead solder, and le

1. (NCMR) Non Conforming material report to your customer if you have signed up for a lead free job. Send everything back and tell him to replace the entire lot with correct material. or 2. Request a Change order from your customer, changing the

I have just started production run using this component. After reflow I see that there is an undercut of solder between the pcb and the lead instead of a fillet. This means that some of the leads are sitting above the solder with no wetting to the co

TM, When picking a material for your lead free assembly you need to think about a couple of things, The standard Material in the US that is being used is running 140 - 170 tg. material. But for lead free assembly you need to focus on is Decomp tem
