Tough to say. It depends on the type of solder mask, the producer of the solder mask, and your board fabricators' process. As one angle on this, solder mask type affects thickness. Minimum clearance: * Liquid photoimageable: 2 thou * Screened liq

I am currently having a discussion with a pcb supplier about inadequate hasl thickness, we are measuring below 40 microinches of hasl when our spec calls for 100 microinches as the minimum. Our supplier came back with the statement the entire indust

I'm reviewing my board fab spec. It calls for a minimum SnPb thickness of 50 microinches on HASL PWB's. I've looked at other specs that call out anything from 30 to 80 microinches, and others that just say the copper pad must be covered and soldera

Instead of a minimum thickness, we require no exposed copper or SnCu intermetallic. We've been having a lot of trouble lately with suppliers of SN100 HASL boards giving us pads with very irregular solder deposits with areas of exposed intermetallic.

First and most important, it doesn't matter dip who is down-wind of the rendering plant. The customer said, "I want bla bla bla." The supplier said, "I want to supply to the customer's order for bla bla bla and will deliver to that specification on

Hi. I was curious what some common accept/reject criteria would be on copper wall thickness. For instance, if 1 ounce copper is used, I believe the IPC specification is 0.001" minimum thickness. Should the order be rejected if there is one measure

At a former employer we required HASL thicknes to be a minimum of 0.75 micron (30 microinches), as measured at the thinnest point on any given pad. This would generally assure a minimum 1 year solderability shelf life. Usually when we saw a soldera
