You'll be able to tell pretty soon if this will work. * Our bet is the epoxy will corrode the silver. * Another concern is that you're not fusing the silver to the copper. Why not ask the imm silver suppliers: * Alpha Level Silver [ http://www.al

We have done some work with conductive adhesives. The main lesson is: They do not adhere well to solder. * For components, a silver-palladium or gold end termination is recommended. * For substrates, gold over nickel should work well.

Thanks Dave, From what I remember a lot of components went away from Silver Palladium to "base metal" terminations because of the difficulties in continuation of supply & stability of price. (Something about being mined in Chechnia or the Congo?) W

Hi Dave, Was planning on skipping the paste step & screen printing the adhesive straight onto the pad, then placing the component into the glue & curing. (Board has LEDs only) Regarding the lead-free HASL issue - not entirely sure on the board man

Hi Rob, I had tried printig anisotropic conductive adhesive as a replacement for solder paste. Following were my finding. Adv: - curing temp is around 120-150C as compared to 217C (Pb-free) solder. - good electrical conductivity, since it is usual

See attached snippet from a datasheet: Syringe 1. Twist and remove the cap from the syringe. Do not discard cap. 2. Measure 1 part by volume of A. 3. Measure 1 part by volume of B. 4. Dispense material on a mixing surface or container, and thoroughl

Hi Indy, Thanks very much for the info - very helpful. Was there any particular adhesive that stood out? Cheers, Rob.

Hi, Does anyone have any experience of using electrically conductive adhesives, including info on the following? 1) Autodispensing/screen printing 2) Curing temps/profiles 3) Quality/conductivity of joint 4) Product recommendations Our customer w

Hi Dave, Thanks for the info, it will be helpful. Planning on trying it on a number of finishes, and have arranged for some samples of the adhesive - Loctite 3880 to start with. Have discovered something important already though - why not many peo

Rob: Why aren't the board houses over there going to lead-free HASL [not that HASL is the most wonderful thing on the planet]? What's the price delta on an unit basis for a x-HASL, now imm Ag board? Anyhow back to the point, so, you're proposing t
