Bill Brooks, CID -----Original Message----- From: Carlr Ray [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Monday, June 09, 2003 3:32 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] LCC HASL and Immersion Silver Hello All, Got a question for you guys.... I have a customer who has a product in design review. We provided feedback with the following concerns. My question is what would you guys recommend for an alternative surface finish if the customer does not change parts? 1. PCB has 3 FPBGAs, 1.0 mm pitch (64 ball count) 12mm x 14mm package 2. PCB has 1 LCC, .5mm pitch (28 pins) 10mm x 10mm package 3. PCB has 4 QFPs, <.5mm pitch (28 - 204 pin count) 4. PCB has HASL finish We have recommended changing the LCC to a BGA or QFP device and changing the finish to Immersion Silver.
