  2. Case Study 6 – Barney Boards

  3. Case Study 6 – Barney Boards • The Setup: • High Performance product OEMs are somewhat obsessed with the cleaning of printed wiring boards • The root of the cleaning obsession has its source in Space and Military product historical material & process protocols • “you must use Rosin fluxes but you must clean within one work shift” • A clean printed wiring board is a happy printed wiring board!

  5. Case Study 6 – Barney Boards

  6. Case Study 6 – Barney Boards • Root Cause: • Excessive Cleaning of Solder Joint Surfaces • Cleaning Solution Was Slightly Alkaline • The Printed Wiring Boards Were Cleaned 10 Times • The Solder Joints Were SnPb • The Sn Phase Was Preferentially Etched • The Pb Phase Dominated the Solder Joint Surfaces • Optically, the Solder Joints Had A Cosmetic Purple- Blueish Appearance • Touching the solder joints with a soldering iron made them bright and shiny
