I tried to use it on a recent project.  We are using Merix and Sanmina
for our FAB.  Both claim that they have to send it out to get that done
and the Fab that did build it used SnPb HASL and gave us a RoHS5 cert.
Failed the XRF scan, before assembly fortunately.

We disqualified RoHS HASL to avoid the problem.  Just using ImAg now.

Subject: [TN] Lead-free HASL

For years we knew and loved Pb HASL.  With the requirements of RoHS HASL
took a back seat.  Has L-F HASL had the kinks worked out so it is
becoming a main stream process?  If so, who is doing it and what is the
performance of the process?  Is it being used for SMT?

Thanks in advance,
