Hi Dan:
One of the differences is density due to grain size. Hard gold
is more dense than soft gold due to smaller grain size.

Subject: [TN] Gold content in solder joints
Question for you folks.... I'm aware of embrittlement issues with too
much gold in solder joints. The question came up here whether or not
there is a difference between "hard" gold content verses "soft" gold
content? Thanks in advance!
Dan
