Lead Free Solder Tin Whiskers
I suspect that because lead free is touted as green or European it provokes a knee jerk negative. Not only is the quality good easy to operate and reliable but also the technology is mature the supply is intact and the price is. Tin Whiskers Revelations Part I Aim Solder Tin Whisker Risk Mitigation for High-Reliability Systems Integrators and Designers. Lead free solder tin whiskers . A simple test was developed to test solder. The wire is allowed to cool. Sn whiskers can grow long enough to cause a short circuit which affects electronic devices reliability. Among the issues related to lead-free solder the increase of reflow temperature when lead-free solder is used is the most critical for semiconductor molding compounds. Phase 2 of our study involved wetting balance spread DSC and mechanical testsWere continuing our summary of a year-long experiment aimed at identifying lead-free solder alloys that mitigate tin whisker growth. A copper wire of approximately 003 standard ...
