I do not really follow what your are asking but... If you want to know if you can run Leaded and Lead-Free products in the same reflow oven, the answer is Yes.

One oven can run both, but your profiles may vary. You will not contaminate your lead-free by running it behind the leaded stuff. Even if you spell "native" as "native".

RoHS BGA. No lead in it. > RoHS BGA. No lead in it. ok. this is not the case .It was sn/pb type...

Good read. Clearly shows the difference between the prssed shirt white paper pushers and the real end users of the lead free. I agree with the comments at the bottom of the article.

I need to solder SAC/HASL PC boards in a NON ROHS process (Tin Leaded solder paste and profile + Tin leaded components) Can I do that?? Regards, Eyal

Is just me, or too many "soldering issues" have been observed lately? on this forum... could be a ~90% components "backwards/compatible" in both leaded/lead free process?

Even BGA may be no braner if it's done properly :-) I had a few cases with that and afterall it worked fine. :-) I agree, it was a good think to mention. Vlad

Hi All, I was wondering if any of you have any ideas on what is the optimum angle for the conveyor to pass over the waves on a leaded wave machine ? Any input would be greatly appriciated. Regards Darron

Wouldn't it be cheaper to by quality parts? Most repair operators can solder a QFP 208 with a regular soldering iron, eyes closed and hands behind their back. If you are just touching up the leads because of co-planer leads, a regular iron is all

We've never used the 99*C lead-free solder you mention. We have used a leaded solder that can form a 93*C eutectic solder. So, we had to be sure the service temperature [of the solder connections] as below 80*C.
