Dear Technos,

 

I need to solder these babies, see
http://www.panasonic.com/industrial/components/pdf/PIC_FK_SERIES.pdf on
lead-free. We're on SAC305.

 

Please check the last page of the spec, series EEV-Q and EEV-M, the big
cans. I must say that Panasonic does not really help us assemblers by
labelling the parts as being RoHS compliant; they might not have the
banned stuff in them, but they are anything but high-temp. When
designers see RoHS compliant, it's case closed for them and open issues
for us. 

 

How are you guys getting around the poor temperature rating of the
component? Would the cool caps work? Are you soldering them manually?
Should I bother studying the Bi alloys?

 

Thank you,

 

Ioan
