| | Has any one seen failures of chip resistors after 1-2 years where the junction between the silver termination and the restive element on the top of the ceramic has corroded through. This results in a high resistance failure after this period of t

| | | Your problem may be related to silver migration (leaching) into the solder. I had what seems to be a similar problem. The solution was using solder with 2% silver content. See these pages for a bit more information: | | | | http://www.ferr

| Hi Folks, | This is my first surface mount board, so I asked our assembly house for some tips. They said only passives on the bottom side-preferably no smaller than 0805, 0603 only if I have to. I would think that an SOT-23 would be OK on the botto

John, SOT 23's on the bottom side is no real problem...as long as you get the orientaion to the wave right and you remember to increase the pad sizees to allow the solder to get to the pads. Soldering with only one wave would be trick as Vinesh sugg
