Hi Graham! Here is a pdf of one of our reports:

For Dave Hillman

Dave thanks for that input - it is very useful.

As I may have explained, we are doing this work as part of a paper we are
to
present at a conference in Singapore. Might we be able to see a copy of
your
work and to reference it in ours?

Regards, Graham Naisbitt

Hi Graham! Let me propose a different angle to your request: spend the
money now during your testing to acquire an understanding on how the
different surface finishes influence/interact with the testing protocol
before settling on "one" finish. Rockwell Collins has spent the last 2
years testing finishes and gathering industry data on the alternative
surface finishes. We have "qualified" several finishes - some work better
in specific use applications than others. However, I also believe that we
will eventually settle on just a couple (yep, you guessed it - immersion
silver and immersion tin) as the main choices for assembly designs. One
finish doesn't fit all as HASL did  - if you limit your testing now you may
end up doing additional testing in the future. Good Luck.

Subject:  [TN] Lead Free Surface finishes



Techies and (I guess  - Leadies?)

We are about to  carry out some reliability test work, examining the
influences of  electro-chemical reactions using SIR techniques.

The manufacturing  process that will be employed involves lead-free
soldering materials, water  based fluxes and water based conformal
coatings. The methodology we shall employ  shall be as drafted in a new IEC
draft spec 6-1189.

The coupon we will  use is intended to model mixed technology as closely as
possible. We include  through-hole connectors, J lead SOIC's, BGA 225, SMT
Capacitors and QFP  160.

We will use an LPIM  resist and were going to examine 4 different surface
finishes:

NiAu  (ENIG)
ImSn - Immersion  Tin
ImAg - Immersion  Silver
OSP

However, and to get  to the question: We can't afford all these
permutations so, we shall select only  one surface finish. Can you folks
advise the most popular surface finish that is  likely to be used for
lead-free processing?

Please, we would  REALLY like a simple answer rather than to open a huge
dialogue - 'cos we have  to get the testing done by Mid November and we
have yet to have the coupons  made!!

Awaiting your  replies with interest.

Regards, Graham  Naisbitt
