Hi Technetters:
        Does anyone know names of companies that manufacture leads for
components. I am interested in knowing whether those companies are doing
something to mitigate whiskers such as annealed matte tin metal finish.
In a previous life (semiconductor manufacturing FAB), we used to get
sheets of lead frames for the chips (die) that we manufacture. I am sure
those leads were bought from another company.
        TIA
        Ramon
