This is the dilema during this transition period. Here is a tip: If you see typcial solder joints on a lead free process, but only on one component type....it probably has a significant quantity of lead in it (ex. Sn90/Pb10...and so on) If using T

| Anyone using SMT "Fair-Rite" beads? We have a P/N 2743019447 that we're using. We need to know the shear force strength of the part and the vendor's man who knows is in Deutschland and can't help until Monday. I can't wait that long. | | Also, do

We have few failures similar to the discussion in this thread, on a 50 Mil pitch, 30 Mil mill Ball PBGA. Would like to understand the mechanism of the BGA reflow process bit more. Appreciate your response to the following. 1.We sheared few solder ba

We're not familiar with the AUG5 from Taiyo. [It doesn't show on their US site.] Is it liquid photoimageable? Printed solder masks are more likely to bleed. But you wouldn't have any solderability with bleed. Your plating seems acceptable [if th

We find that the raw BGA's pad sheared surface has the SnPb solder at various Z heights whereas the assembled BGAs pad leave a smooth layer of SnPb along the pad. Like to understand the cause for the difference. Who could guess? Solder joint streng

| Regardless of what various inspection standards state, has anyone got any information on how the strength of a soldered joint changes with the amount of solder in contact with the legs. ie if there is 0.152um depth of contact how does the joint st

When I evaluated a new glue type, I simply used a shear force tester (Chatillon) to compare the cured strengths of the different glues. I sampled parts of different types; 0805, SOT23, 1206, and various tantalum caps. I analyzed the data based on e
