Hello -- I received this request from my home page, can any of you (all) respond to Jeff Tan's request? Jeff's e-mail address is [log in to unmask] Thanks, Ron Daniels Editor CA-Online ===== Hi Ron, This is my first visit to this page and I thought I'll try the 'tete-a-tete'. Any way wondering if you could direct me to any relevant information/papers on palladium / silver-palladium / nickel-palladium plating for leadframe and related surface-mount issues. I think this page is a great idea. Hoping that this can be a great source of information on semiconductor, packaging and circuit assembly on cyberspace ! regards Jeff-MH Senior Engineer (Process & Development) Hewlett Packard Singapore Integrated Circuit Business Division Tel : (65)-662-4457 Fax : (65)-268-4842
