John, We are using a well known solder paste, begining with the letter "H". (I don't want to be accused of advertising). Also, we are now using a board inverter. In the early day's however, before we purchased a board inverter, we were having to

| We are experiencing 'lifting' on one or more sides of a QFP. Poor lead co-planarity has been ruled out by independent tests. Please tell me which of the two remaining failure modes is the most probrable? | | 1. Expansion of gases in vias underneat

I have a CEM-1 PCB board with 35 microns copper. This is PCB is finished with SMOBC+HALS. We do solder SMT LEDs, but till date we do not have problems that you have listed. The LEDs are good & bright. It even passed high & low temp cycle tests (-40 t
