 Hi Vladimir,
That is where we disagree--the definition of 'Black Pad.'
I define it as the phenomenon root cause regardless of what caused it--that is not to say that who caused it is unimportant.

Hi Werner,



 



I should have referred to your exact phrase,
so you wouldn’t have to correct me J



As far as the definition of BP is
concerned, then I still prefer to define it as a manufacturing defect, which
has nothing to do with the assembly process.



The presence of thicker P-enriched layer
isn’t a good thing but in true cases of BP it’s normal
(thickness-wise) but the joints has almost zero strength.





Regards,



 



Vladimir

Hi Vladimir,

I did not say 'excessive temperature'-- I said 'the more you expose
an ENIG layer to soldering temperatures'--that means multiple or lengthy
exposures.

If you define 'Black Pad' as the presence of P at the Ni/NiSn-IMC interlayer to
a degree significantly weakening that interface, then you can arrive at that
condition by
 multiple paths.

One is faulty manufacturing, the other is excessive Ni-dissolution--of course,
these can work in combination.



Werner

Well, with all due respect I would have to disagree with you Werner (not





for the first time :-)). I wouldn't associate Black Pad with excessive





soldering temperature. It's rather a board manufacturing related issue.











Regards,











Vladimir

 The more you expose an ENIG layer to soldering temperatures, the more





Ni dissolves leaving more P at the layer between the Ni and the





NiSn-IMC. The more? P the weaker this interface, leading to 'Black Pad'

Can you give me any examples of black pad being caused by anything other





than a 





"bad board"? ie.? Is there anything in processing "perfect board" that





would 





cause a de-wet condition that indicates black pad??? I guess where I'm





going is, 





can this be anything other than a supplier issue?

 Hi 'rekers,'





You cannot broad-brush like this. Some FAB houses do quite well, others





not.





ENIG, from various sources and at various conditions, has shown nickel





corrosion or high phosphide concentrations. The underlying reasons for





these are





different, actually diametrically opposed. Some are the fault of the FAB





house





others not.

Anybody out there experiencing mass dewetting issues from North American





board 





shops?





?





From what I understand primary causes for dewetting (assuming the





reflow/wave 





profile is bang on) is all on the board, ie nickel corrosion,





degeneration of 





the nickel, or outgassing of the nickel/copper.? (I'm talking enig





here.)





?





Anybody?
