Rather than having the artwork cover the via as with tenting dry film, and letting the mask do what it will, the preferred way is to do a second op silk screen with something like SR1000 just in the vias themselves to plug them. This doesn't always

Well I've heard you must get the 0201, 0.4mm tape feeder to place an 0201 component as the 0402 feeder won't do it. They ain't cheap @ $1,000 each from Fuji roughly. Also you will need to get 0.4mm nozzles on your machine. Have you actually done thi

So next time that you order boards from your fabricator, consider asking the your fab to cap these pesky via on the solder side with SR1000 [or whatever they think will be good and cheap]. Think of the money you'll save. Your boss will be ecstatic!!!

$1000 each and once the pad has turned 'black it is almost impossible to re-tin it. Has anyone else seen this problem? Do we have any comeback on our suppliers do you think, given that we placed the components onto the boards and subsequently remove
