Some peelable solder masks attack immersion finishes. It appears components in the peelable soldermask, such as ammonia, are not very friendly to these particular surface finish. [We've wanted to investigate the effect of mask application thickness

Hello Netters, I need some info, Earl or Dave, I have a PCB that exhibits a white layer on solder side. It does not appear to be surface residues (IPA has no effect), but looks like its under solder mask. My first guess is that the LPI solder mask

We are planning on converting to a no-clean soldering chemistry and will need to replace our water soluble liquid solder mask as a result. Does anyone know of a dispensable, "peelable" solder mask I can evaluate? It would be nice to find one that i

Yes, Russ IPC-6012A w A#1 - Qualification & Performance For Rigid Printed Boards talks to solder mask requirements in 3.8. One interpretation of what it says: * Solder resist [solder mask] must meet the qualification / conformance requirements of S

We have what appears to be a recurring problem. On immersion gold boards only, we are having solderability problems. After reflow, selected parts can be popped right off the board. There is then a dark haze left on the pad. The paste on the compon
