The reason we looked at this particular solder joint is because it
cracked. To analyze, we scraped off a piece with an exacto blade (like
we have done many times before.)
We are confident the Pb is in the sample.

Paul,
Did you do the EDX measure on a bulk Sn96Ag4 (i.e., piece of solder wire
or solder paste reflowed on a glass slide) or did you do the measurement
on a cross section of a solder joint. If you did the EDX on a cross
section of a solder joint then I would look to see if there is another
source of Pb that contaminated the solder joint.
Regards,
George

Does anyone think that 3.5% Pb in a SN96AG4 (aka Pb-free) is abnormal? I
think it is, but I have doubters here. This was measured by EDX.
Does anyone have any evidence what this does to reliability?
Specifically mechanical cycling.
