Are these Solid Solder Deposit systems compatible with double sided
reflow processes? I would imagine that the second side would form a
meniscus and all the flux would be used up during the first reflow
operation. Is there a manageable way around this?

>> All,
>> There was an interesting article in the February issue of SMT Magazine
>> (IHS Publishing Group) on page 56, entitled: "End Paste Defects with
>> Solid Solder Deposits".  This is a technique where the PWB Manufacturer
>> applies solder to the board, then runs the boards through polished
>> rollers to flatten the solder coating into a flat surface roughly the
>> same height as the soldermask.  Then a tacky flux is applied and finally
>> an easy peel cover sheet.  They claim the boards retain solderability
>> well and the paste stencil process is eliminated.
>>
>> There have been similar / identical techniques touted in the past, known
>> as:
>> "Sipad" (R) Siemens AG, (solderpaste application method)
>> "Optipad" (R) Viele Circuits Inc. and Burkle USA, (liquid solder
>> application method) and
>> "Precision Pad Technology or PPT (R) Mask Technology Inc. (solderpaste
>> application w/ textured finish)
>>
>> If anyone knows of domestic (USA) Manufacturers offering this technology,
>> I'd like to hear who they are.
>> Thanks

>> Subject: [TN] HASL alternatives
>>
>> To All,
>> We are now making a comparison between different alternatives to HASL.
>> The
>> chosen alternative will have to meet the following criterias criterias.
>>
>>  - flat coating
>>  - compatible with No-clean process and mixed technology
>>  - resistant to 2-3 reflow (multiple heat cycle)
>>  -and MINIMUM 1 year shelf life (storage before assembly)
>>
>> These are the alternatives we think can meet our needs:
>>
>> * OSP
>>         - Benzimidazole (?)
>>
>> * IMMERSION
>>         - Silver
>>         - Bismuth
>>         - Au-Ni
>>         - Palladium
>>
>>
>> Q: Wich one do you think could be the best meet to our criterias ?
>>
>> Q: And what would be its advantage(s) compared to the others ?
>>
>> Q:  OTHERS  ? (is anyone using other coating alternative )
>>
>>
>> Thanks for all for your help
