What is Maxims lead-free material?
Lead-free (Pb-free) surface finishes on most leadframe based packages are commonly composed of 100% matte tin (followed by annealing for 1 hour at 150°C). The exception is a few leadframe based packages of other EU RoHS-compliant plating finishes such as nickel/palladium/gold. Ball Grid Array (BGA), µCSP/WLP/flip-chip packages usually contain balls or bumps of tin/silver/copper. For all lead frame based packages except Power Cap family products with 100% matte tin plating, the plating thickness is 400 – 800 microinches (µ-inch), or 10 to 20 microns. Power Cap products include DS9034xxx series or PCT-1 or PCT+1, PCT-2 or PCT+2, PCT-3 or PCT+3 package codes.
