I have a pin and sleeve assembly that utilizes a fusible link type of solder, Bi, Cd, Pb and Sn alloy. The pin is gold plated, the sleeve is copper alloy 725. I have had sporadic success with wetting of the sleeve during the reflow process. To improv

Agreed. In my experience you will not wet solder to: Platinum Iron Constantine Tungsten Carbide titanium Chromalloy allomega alloy 303, 304 ...and the list goes on and on. You will either need to weld or braze. These are high temperature prcesses

We agree with Russ that you're talking palladium instead of platinum. Your wetting problem likely is not the Pd-Ag surface layers, but the underlying metal or nickel to which you need to wet. Either a base metal is: * Contaminated and poorly wettabl

Thanks for all the info Dave. It's the interconnect between the copper foil pad and the eutectic solder ball that I'm most interested in. The BGA in question is very thin gold plated over nickel over the copper. When we are reworking the BGA, i

You may want to check out Nihon Superior. Nihon licensed their Alloy to Aim for US production Late last month! The alloy uses nickel and the solder joints look amazing for "lead-free" they rival tin-lead in appearance. Other boasts is that you can

Known: During PCB maufacting nickel alloys are used for corrosion resistance during gold immersion process. A nickel alloy with a high phosphorus concentration will cause a weak connection interface. Question: Is the concentration of phosphorus in ni

Strange that, I heard one guy had problems with Tin,Copper Nickel alloy were the Impellar dissolved in 9 weeks it was in a HASL machine. Best regards Greg

Hello Steve, Yes, there are differences in the various alloys and I have described briefly below these differences: SN100- a common name for 100% tin that is used to increase the tin content in 63/37. SN100C-Name for Tin/Copper/Nickel/Germanium all

Hi Dave, Yes, that makes sense, are you sure that this standard covers Nickel Silver alloys as well? I've been asking Thanks,

I have a component that is glue cured on the bottom of a pcb. The component is a 1206 size jumper. It is made up of iron/nickel alloy. The problem I am having is that the part will fall off the board during wave solder. Is the component not able
