Hi Inge,

Here's your cross section photo:

I haven't tried posting a picture to the IPC photo library yet, don't really 
need to, I have my own page ;^>

>> One of the conclusions is "the crack propagates around harder Sn shearing

>>
>> I have deposited the micro-sections on the IPCs website

>> I would need your expert opinion regarding the failure. Is this fatigue?
>> The big pure Sn and pure Pb areas, are they normal size for fatigued
>> joints?
