We are pre-tinning the gold leads prior to assembly on our military
products. I'm looking for some constructive data or argument to decide if we
should continue this practice.
My concern would be gold embrittlement in the solder joint and any latent
failures attributed to this.
Any comments or guidance in this matter would appreciated.
Regards,
Nick D.
