I haven't found an industry standard, but did find a company offering this service, Corfin Industries. They call it Tin Whisker Mitigation. http://www.corfin.com Jim Marsico EDO Corporation 1250 New Horizons Blvd. North Amityville, NY 11701 631-630-5079 [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Robert Coburn Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2007 8:45 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] Hot solder dip to mitigate Sn whiskers Hi T'netters; My emails can't get through using my work address so hopefully this alternate e-dress works. My questions are: Does anyone pre-treat pure tin finish terminations on components with a hot solder dip to mitigate tin whiskers? Is there an industry standard on this process? TIA; Regards, Rob Coburn TDI [log in to unmask] _________________________________________________________________ Turn searches into helpful donations.
