I would appreciate the pictures - please send to Steve.?? I have not heard of a connection between tin whiskers and CAF.? I have heard rumors that at about 6 gigahertz and above, tin whiskers act like antennas and degrade signal quality, but only a rumor - unpublished.

Subject: [TN] BGA Pb-free, this is what I feared: Tin whiskers
We have HASL and via-in-pad. Electrical issues, disturbed signals. There were hundreds of Tin whiskers on inside of the unfilled vias, and even whiskers from solder pads circumperiphery, pointing at the nearby solder pads. I suspect that the signal failures are caused by CAFs. Have any of you seen a connection between the presence of Tin whiskers and CAF growth??

All BGA via-in-pads are solder mask defined. If you want photos, I can send a couple to the PA immigrant.?
