SHENMAO Offers Low-Temperature Lead-Free Solder Paste PF735-PQ10-10L for High-Speed Printing
February 22, 2023 | SHENMAOEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
SHENMAO America, Inc. has released its PF735-PQ10-10L Low Melting Point Lead-Free Solder Paste. The paste has been designed specifically for the SMT process and is applicable to the high-speed printing process to increase production capacity.
The demand for ultra-thin packages continues to increase. This reduction in package thickness has led to an increase in warpage, resulting in production yield loss.
PF735-PQ10-10L offers some important benefits when it comes to SMT assembly. The low-temperature solder paste can reduce the reflow temperature to below 190°C compared to lead-free soldering, which is typically 240°-250°C. When compared with SnAgCu, the PQ10 series of low-temperature solder paste reduces peak reflow temperature, energy consumption, and warpage of PCBs and components.
In comparison with the Sn42/Bi58 Eutectic alloy, the PQ10 series offers better ductility, finer microstructure, and increased drop and thermal reliability. PF735-PQ10-10L is suitable for precise electronic products, such as laptops, PCs, servers and LED modules. Furthermore, it has been successfully mass produced on laptops.
PF735-PQ10-10L is Halogen-free (ROL0) with no halogen intentionally added. It complies with RoHS, RoHS 2.0 and REACH.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
