IPC-6012A sec3.2.6.4 (Solder Coating) points to J-STD-006. J-STD-006 sec3.2 (Alloys) shows Cu @0.08% max, which seems VERY low. ( We're currently limiting to 0.3% max.). Also: why are assembly solder pot standards (J-STD-001) Table 5-1 (Solder Limits) more relaxed than HAL (J-STD-006)? Thanks, Mark P.S. Thanks to all who responded to my previous HAL question. P.S. Technet's a great forum: Scientific, but not clinical. Focused and knowledgeable. Occasionally emotional, but moderated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- Technet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt delivery of Technet send the following message: SET Technet NOMAIL Search previous postings at: www.ipc.org > On-Line Resources & Databases > E-mail Archives Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-509-9700 ext.5315 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Technet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt delivery of Technet send the following message: SET Technet NOMAIL Search previous postings at: www.ipc.org > On-Line Resources & Databases > E-mail Archives Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-509-9700 ext.5315 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
