The entrapped moisture WILL escape. You just want to assure it is not through your PTH and via. Hopefully your board is constructed such that the alternate escape path for the moisture does not delaminate the board.

| Anyone have an idea how small a via must be to inhibit significant solder volume escaping into the via? Typically, micro vias are drilled and plated to about .003" diameter. To avoid significant solder "drain off," they should be drilled as shallow

A few of the more common defects If bridging or insuffienct deposits occur on the printer, one of the first things to check is the tooling. Misplaced hard tooling pins or poorly designed fixtures have a nasty habit of breaking components on side

Large voids are common in via in pad [seach the fine SMTnet Archives for earlier laments], especially in blind via. Observations on your via out gassing theory: * If the copper plating on your via is GT 1 thou, there will be no outgassing from the

We're not sure what a 'sticky roller' is, but will it: * Remove ionic materials * Leave no residue * Clean the walls of through holes and vias * Clean under low stand-off BGA and LGA
