IPC/PERM-WP-022 - White Paper

Mitigation of Pure Tin Risk by Tin-Lead SMT Reflow - Results of an Industry Round-Robin - Final Report

Document #:
IPC/PERM-WP-022
Revision
Original Version
Product Type
White Paper
Released:  09/05/2018
Language
English
Current Revision
Manufacturers of high reliability electronics have been working for many years to mitigate the deleterious effects of tin whisker formation. One highly effective means to suppress the growth of tin whiskers is to replace the pure tin plating with reflowed tin-lead solder. One approach is to fully consume the tin plating by tin-lead solder during the SMT reflow process. This phenomenon of tin...
