Today's Lead Free Crap Solder Stories ...

B

Baron

Hi Guys,

Just for the record here's a few pictures of a laptop power socket that
used lead free solder. You can see the erosion caused by poor
electrical conductivity of the joint between the center pin and the
circuit board. The hole was originally plated through but there was
little left of the plating. An open circuit and discharged battery
resulted in a non working machine.

Check in "alt.binaries.schematics.electronic" for the pictures.
