If you don't want to switch vendors,
you might ask them what they are
capable of (instead of sending out to
a third party) and what they have the
most experience using.
Personally, we have had great success
with Immersion Silver, and it doesn't
increase the cost of the board like
ENIG does.
I hope soemone else answers you about
the MATERIAL, because I want to know!

[DC] RoHS board finish
Caterpillar: Confidential Green Retain Until: 02/17/2006 Retention
Category: G90 - General Matters/Administration
Hi All,
I'm doing my first PCB design that will use lead-free components and I
need
to change my board finish from what I've always used.....HASL. I'm looking
for
any recommendations or comments on the best board finish to use.
The components used on the design will be a mixture of tin-lead and
lead-free (SAC), so I'm not sure if there is a preferred finish to use in
this type
of situation. I work in a prototype environment where the boards may be
reworked (BGA removal/replaced) a number of times, so I'm concerned about
the
ability of the finish being able to handle being reworked/reflowed a
number of
times.
I'd also welcome any recommendations on the type of board material to use
since it will see an elevated temperature of up to 260C. I've always just
specified FR4 in the past.
Thanx in advance for any feedback.
Regards,
Bob Walker
