Can anyone help me on where to find reference for the above info other than IPC2221 as it is not covered by the said standard. I am looking for a proper trace spacing for my lightning protection circuit on my PCB for the following requirements: 750

Hi Peter, The defect you observe during the second side reflow could be caused due to improper Au plating thickness in the PCB fabrication process. You can refer IPC-2221 wherein plating thicknes for ENIG mentions 0.08um to 0.23um for Immersion Gold,

IPC 2221B mentions a minimum clearance of 0.5 mm between adjacent holes. A drill-to-drill spacing of 20 mils is a standard value in manufacturer design rules. For small annular rings and pad-to-pad clearance, the minimum via distance is often defin

Well, no fault with your calculations from here. They appear to be correct. [Logic doesn't appear to be off to far off base, either. An epiphany, eh?] As mentioned in an earlier posting on this thread, consider following the recommendations of IP

You bet our reponse changes. Q2R: Hard gold thickness is 4 to 10 u" for Au and 300 to 400 u" for nickel A2R: This is a hard gold spec?? It looks like a ENIG spec. Although, the Ni is quite heavy, 150 uin is sufficient for most applications. The gol

Hi Adam, I would suggest you refer IPC-2221 guidelines which define plating thickness as: Nickel 2.5-5.0 um , Gold 0.08-0.23 um. Although ENIG is a standard process, there is an associated risk towards Gold embrittlement, Porous Gold, or Black pad de
