Referee Call on Solder Balls | 31 January, 2013

Need your help with a referee call on solder balls. See attached pictures. Engineering believes the solder balls and splash in pictures violate IPC-A-610E-2010 section 5.2.7.1. Purchasing on the other hand believes these are acceptable. Info: balls and splatter was flicked from surface and would have been dislodged under service conditions. Traces near balls are 0.008 in. Any help wil be greatly appreciatted.

Defect if its not coated.

Defect - Class 1,2,3 • Solder balls are not entrapped, encapsulated or attached or can become dislodged in the normal service environment. • Solder balls violate minimum electrical clearance.

Are the conditions (Bullets) under the IPC Acceptable and Defect sections "ANDs" or "ORs"? In other words, does every condition under a section must be meet to be Acceptable/Defect or meeting any one condition suffices?
