What is the Au thickness?   How may inserted is the plating rated for?  Try XRF testing.

Dear Technos,

I guess you had all already guessed where I'm trying to get at: I have Cu diffusion at the surface of the Au on some connecting pins and can't assess the effect on long term reliability.

So here comes the second question: are there any studies / rules of thumb that could say how much of the Au surface may be lost without any negative impact on the functionality? I definitely got the message that everything is application related, but just trying my luck...

Or, anybody has an idea how could I test the long term reliability in this situation?

Thanks,
