Notes on the Effects of Metallisation of Surface Mounted Components on Soldering

Abstract

Some characteristics of the metallisation of leadless ceramic components are discussed, such as dissolution, reliability of joints, intermetallic compound formations and the migration of silver. It is concluded that it is not the type of the metallisation that is important, but the quality of the make.
