Seen it. We use a lead free process, sometimes our supplier will use a lead process silk screen that burns at a lower temp. The HASL coat was still SN100CL.

We have an issue with solder wicking up the leads/ inside terminations on an SMT connector. The solder coverage is sometimes over 50% of the connectors inside pin length. The terminations are gold plated. Is there an IPC spec for acceptability? Plea

Thanks for your reply!! But i dont understand the 300 degree is okay to for lead free process

We switched our PCB's to 170Tg over 10 years ago, so we're probably good to go on the temperature aspect. Thanks for the opinion on the added lead content.

Is this solder lead or lead free? Try look at the delta of the PCB during re-flow, you might find that the smaller parts are being "cooked" faster and burning off the flux.

hello! Can you be more precise on what you need ? like profiles in general? leaded? lead free? low temp profiles? cheers!

If you are using lead solder (SnPb) HASL is a good choice. If you are using lead-free (RoHS compliant) solder then I would recommend Immersion Gold (ENIG).

Hi Syed, I'm a PCB engineer from China. First:Immersion gold surface finish is the best for PCBs. Second:HASL(Lead-Free HASL) Then:HAL(with lead) The cheapest surface finish is OSP(After 15 days will be oxidized)

Is there any electronic digital devices or other easiest ways to use to determine any unsoldered pins/leads besides some other normal inspections like using microscopes.

Slim chance it's the nature of the beast if in original unopened package. If handled by anybody not properly trained they will get bent. Allso make sure your pick and place is seating them into the paste, any lead not contacting the wet paste will be
