Hi , Could you be seeing the nickel under the gold plating because you are removing some of the Gold with the Kapton Tape....?? You mean , the adhesive properties of the kapton tape will cause the gold plating on the gold finger to be somehow peel of

>>> gold finger was covered by a Kapton tape and it was done offline away from the Screen printer or rather from the SMT lines itself, we are using an ENIG Pcb's , the process doesnt need a wave soldering ....however at the final end of the line ,

Hi, Need some advice on how to eliminate or reduce the solder on finger that we are having right now. So far what we understand is that 90% of the problem is due to the reflow process where solder traps in vias causing explosion when subjecte

I have some finished boards that I have concluded have "black pad" defect. Outside of the black crap on some of the solder joints, if the boards are electrically functional, are they reliable? Any opinions would be appreciated as I dont want to throw

Do some push / pull testing. Typically with black pad, you can flick the components right off the board. If you have this, the boards are about as reliable as a Yugo. If you get decent push / pull results, odds are you don't have black pad and you
