Are you suggesting there may be some chemical incompatibility between paste/flux chemistries and the glue being used - thus intefering with the glue's ability to bond properly? I've only heard of this possibility, but never experienced it. Justin, St

| We are having a small number (~2%) of our boards pass our manufacturing diagnostics, fail once they reach the customer, fail when they get back to us and then start working again after handling them for a short time. We have eliminated a lot of it
