Michael: I would agree with Jason. It seems your analysis has pointed you to one specific brand of part. I've also seen this phenomenon. The part was Palladium plated and when we switched to a nickel/tin plated part, the problem went away. Some o

Wolfgang, Billboarding is kinda like a tombstone. The part is just sitting on it's side instead of on it's end. There should be plenty of info on this in the archives under billboard and tombstone. Most likely cause is off center placement and ov

Suggest that you do search on this forum for "tombstoning". Regards, Bert

Hi Eric, you have the right reduction on the stencils apertures? Also, a very oxidized solder paste can -and will do- promote and increase both the tombstoning as well as the solder balls.

Interesting, I could not find anything via a website search some of the links came up as 404, others a "home" page and some never went at all (or took too long) So I turned to google and found http://www.smtinfo.net/docs/tombstoning.pdf a 16 page a

Hi, Have you checked your placements pre-reflow? The most typical cause of a billboard unlike tombstoning is a pick and place issue. Billboarding will usually happen with ( profile/bad pad layout and the most common just poor center placement. I'v

Depends on what you mean by shifting towards each other. Otherwise, 7 mil should be fine for 0603. I've used 6mil, 7mil and 8 mil without problems. Generally, stencil thickness won't have a bearing on "shifting" parts. Check placement. Make su

Hi everybody, I found a defect varistor 0603 Tombstone and poor welting when we use component that terminal is Silver palladium (Ag/ Pd) with Leaded solder paste (63/37). Then we change alternative component that terminal is Ni/ Sn the result not fou

I'm currently running a double sided paste smt board loaded with 0603's, on the secondary side. Many of the 0603 devices tombstone during reflow if the parts are not perfectly centered on the pads. Is this caused by the .008 foil thickness? Has anyon

I need your help. I have been battleing tombstoned 0603 resistors for many months now. I have been working on the profile, the placement accuracy of the chipshooter, and the print accuracy. I am writing in the hopes that someone out there has some
