We've used these components for years, far before I ever even heard of
leadfree solder processes.
We never had any issues with them that I am aware of.  Of course we
always used HASL finish boards before we went Pbfree.  
I am still not aware of any issues with them.

Subject: [TN] AgPdPt-glass frit?

Technetters,

Anyone heard of a silver-palladium-platinum-glass frit finish on a
component?
(See http://www.coilcraft.com/1008ls.cfm )

Do the same issues with Ag and AgPd finishes apply?
Should I be concerned about using this in a SnPb process?

Ben
