Dave,
I have been following your discussion on solderability (root causes of
excessive oxidation) and am lead to believe that if porous/thin tin leads are
"reworked" properly by these tinning houses we could avoid the many inventory
problems (storage time, slow moving parts, bagging with desicant, etc.) and
still maintain or improve solder connection reliability.
The eventual/ultimate solution being to get the OEM's with poor tinning
corrected or off the approved supplier list.
Am I over simplifying with this conclusion?
