I still don't understand why you assembly people don't use OSP ! It is the
easiest process to use in bare board fab, it is reworkable at the fab
house,
if you have kept the parts on a shelf for too long and are suspicious that
they may not solder so well, you can send them back to the FAB for
reprocessing (assuming they have not gone bust meantime, or moved half way
around the planet) and you are not contributing to polluting the planet
with
Thiourea, or killing the board shop operators ! So what has white tin over
OSP?
