Hi Ed -
A question- you said "..had stress lines develop....after convection
reflow" - is that after some type of stress testing (thermal, etc.) or
literally right after the reflow process. If you are having "stressed"
solder joints right out of the reflow process I suspect that you have
a process problem or a board/layout design problem. The TechNet
traffic has shown that there are quite a few electronic manufacturers
that have/are experiencing cracking problems with Alloy 42 TSOPs as
part of the stress screening.

I would like to send or fill out over the phone a questioneer for all
users of tsops having alloy 42 leads who have experienced problems with
stressed or cracked solder joints on pwas. We had stress lines develop in
solder joints after convection reflow when we had bulbous solder joints.
Reducing stencil apertures to (19.7 mil pitch) 10 mil width with 50% length
using a 6 mil thick stencil rather than an 8 mil stencil gave solder joints
with heel fillets and a 50% toe fillet that survived the reflow process but
they showed stress lines after wave soldering. Hand solder repair of cracked
joints appeared to remedy the situation.
