What workmanship standard are you working to? The IPC book has an allowance for boards with heatsinks or thermal masses that allow less than 75% barrel fill on through hole parts. I would suggest that you check your board layers and determine if yo

Please note that pin holes and blow holes are not always defects. The latest IPC 610A Rev D workmanship standard has them as process indicators- depending on Class. I don't have the document handly while writing this. It would be good to look that up

Whether there's a fillet or not depends on the component type. Most have a fillet but some, such as QFN's, don't necessarily have one. Have a look at IPC-610D Workmanship Standards to understand when you should expect one and when you shouldn't. T

Here's what I do: - Test Surface Insulation Resistance (we're in the high reliability market and use a test significantly harder than IPC's). I also test SIR in combination with other assembly materials like conformal coatings and wave solder flux

We've all been soldering Pb free parts for a couple decades. All your surface mount capacitors have probably had a Sn finish for years. Whenever one of our parts with a SnPb finish converts for Pb free we have the manufacturing site do a small buil

I need some input to clear up some confusion I have with regards to what standard I should be using for workmanship on the pcb assemblies we produce. Should I be using the IPC 610b or the ANSI-J-STD-001B? What is the norm for the industry or is the
