Could also be a ground plane under one of the terminations of the cap causing heat sink troubles during reflow. One pad liquifies/solidifies before the other. Don't know a good solution for this outside of reworking them.

the pcb pad design problem?(the component able to fully located at the pad?).....or maybe the component(cap)problem?try to exchanged the part and reverse the pcb direction of the reflow entering.

Curious... are you running any N2 in your reflow? If so what ppm level? I have worked with some reflow users that low ppm levels (

Your English is fine. Your assessment that corrosion on a portion of the metalization on the end of a component is causing the tombstoning is reasonable. We've seen that before. Corroded components received from a supplier is not acceptable as an

Tombstone head and a graveyard mind. I would not recommend 1:1 due to solderpaste beed out opportunities. Have you tried the inverted home-plate? Here are some good links on tombstoning and how to eliminate it: http://www.aimsolder.com/technical_ar

There is no difference in 0402�s on the bottom side than 0603 0805 1206. They will not fall off or tombstone, unless they where before you put them in the oven.

we have some pretty tight 0402 placements and our best fix was to reduce the pad (vertically speaking) from .030x.022 to .020x.022. Fewer tombstones and the paste flows out to the edge of the pads nicely. Only difference is that we have a 6mil sten

Does anyone out there have any info on track balance ratios. i.e. heavy track entering 1 end of component (0402) and thinner track leaving other end and how this effects/causes problems like tombstoning. Am trying to put together design rules for cus

Mark, This topic has been discussed multiple time on this site. You can find almost all of them by searching the archives for tombstoning. That aside, have you look at your stencil apetures?(homeplate design).
