Hi Werner,



I was expecting your replay with respect to "Ag embrittlement":-). However, with the exception of your verbal referrences to an old and confidential report, I haven't seen any published data provingv the point. 



I always look forward to learn something new, though :-).



Regards,



Vladimir

Hi Vladimir,

I did not think Genny's question related to solder joints.

However, your point about Au-embrittlement needs to be corrected. Ag-embrittlement is as bad as au-embrittlement, and for the very same reasons. And the effect of the two in combiation is additive.
