First, I don�t understand why your board fabricator can�t do a good job plugging your vias. Additionally, when you consider that they forgot to plug the first batch of boards, it makes me wonder if they are desirable as a supplier. Generally, we us

Been there - done that. Makes a mess on that 2nd reflow process- doesn't it!?!?!? This is caused by design. If the open via is located in the land area, it will flow thru the via and cause pumps on the opposite side. You can have your vias filled

For those of you who use via holes as test points, and the via holes must be filled at the wave, is it necessary to have a "dome" on every single test point, or is it sufficient to have the via "filled" with solder? The ICT preson here insists that

I asume you're not ICT-ing this board and using the vias for test points?

Pete, is there a probe-style that will accomodate a via that's filled, but a little concave (inward) fillet? The ICT personnel complains about this scenario too. I'm not an ICT person, but I do know that there are pogo pins that have a crown (for t

No dome needed. You should check what type probe you have. You can look here and consult with them: http://www.qualmaxamerica.com/qualmax/leeno/semi.asp?string=ICT

Hi Guys, Can you give me a good bird's eye view in Verifying First Off via ICT Test. We currently verify our first off via naked eye for just the solder joint quality, orientation of parts etc. Aside from open and shorts, what can ICT verify? how c

Is there an ICT probe style that can pierce through tented (closed) via's?
