Implementing Lead Free Solder In Electronics Manufacturing

A timely and practical treatment of implementation of lead-free solder in the manufacturing environmentIn order to meet new laws in Europe, electronic manufacturers around the globe have had to change over to lead-free soldering. Now, Lead-Free Electronics is the first practical, primary reference to cover lead-free solder assembly, as well as the analysis and reasoning behind the selection of Sn-Ag-Cu as the recommended lead-free replacement for Sn-Pb.Reflecting the results of a two-year study undertaken by a cross-section of some of the largest North American electronic equipment manufacturers, Lead-Free Electronics provides full coverage of the issues surrounding the implementation of lead-free solder into electric board assembly. Additionally, fully documented book chapters with references to existing published work in the area make this an invaluable reference for the countless engineers and companies faced with making the switch to lead-free electronics.Parker, Richard D. is the author of 'Implementing Lead Free Solder In Electronics Manufacturing', published 2007 under ISBN 9780471448877 and ISBN 0471448877.
