Take Action Limits (TAL) for SAC305 Lead Free Soldering Processes Utilizing Solder Baths/Pots
Introduction and Statement of Problem
Due to marketing and legislative pressures in Asia and Europe, the electronics industry has moved to adopt lead free solders. These lead free materials are considered by some to be environmentally preferable to lead containing solders that dominated electronics manufacturing for many years.
Although the issue as to whether lead free solders are indeed environmentally preferred compared to lead containing solders is still under debate, market and legislative actions have forced a change in materials used in electronics assembly.
Accordingly, solder material suppliers are being asked to provide the electronics industry with solders that are lead free (per the accepted technical definition of that term) and yet still provide all the needed properties – including ease of assembly and reliability – properties the electronics industry has come to expect from lead containing solders.
