Kevin,
Make sure you require a Ni barrier layer between the copper and gold (hard
of soft)!

Subject: [TN] PCB finish: ENIG vs. hard gold
Sent by: TechNet <[log in to unmask]>
Hi everyone,
We have a PCB supplier who is offering "Hard Gold" as an alternate to ENIG
finish, due to PCB size and processing capabilities. The application is
Class 3 (mil/aero). The circuit is thin FR4 and subject to SMT reflow w/
Sn63Pb37 (non RoHS) solder alloy, and moderate flexing in end application.
Can anyone offer info on the differences between the two finishes, and/or
their suitability? Is there an IPC spec (or specs) that outline "hard
gold"?
Thanks,
Kevin Glidden
