High Temperature Solder Lead Attachment Process

For Pretinned LCCs .350" square or larger

The tin-lead phase diagram below shows the temperatures associated with the various phases for several tin-lead compositions. Micross Components utilizes 5Sn-95Pb for lead soldering due to its relatively high liquids temperature. This allows further processing of the leaded packages without concern for 60Sn-40Pb solder reflow temperatures affecting the lead attach. This method of lead attach often exceeds the stringent lead integrity requirements of MIL-STD-883. But are the electrical characteristics of the device affected? No. Hundreds of thousands of devices have had leads attached utilizing Micross Components's post-assembly high temperature lead attach process with proven success after board mounting time and time again.
