We currently are building a pcb that has gold fingers, about 36 in a concave V overall shape from .275 on the outside edge fingers tapering down to .197 in the middle of the 2 inch span that plugs into a shelf connector. These fingers are on both sid

Thoughts are: * Most board fabs have routers that can do this work. Can yours rework these boards? * Scrap the boards and start anew. Someone made a mistake. Cut your losses. * As a wild and crazy guy alternative, buy a router with a 45* bit from

First, while black pad can be a problem with poorly controlled electroless gold [search SMTnet Archives for background], it is not a suffiecient reason to use electrolytic. It's the reason the supplier should fix their electroless gold process. Se

Millerin: You are generally correct about plugging and over plating vias, but in Michaels case, the via is blind. Plugging would trap air between the bottom of the via and the plug material, causing an air pocket. When heated to soldering temperat

When double sided BGA's are used on an .062 FR4 10 layer board should via's be plugged and tented? The CACHE chips being used are PBGA's 1.27mm pitch. The pad size is .030 and the finished via dia. is .010. This is a dogbone type pad and via design.

We care currently running into problems during our plug via process: At the moment we plug prior to soldermask (LPISM) using epoxy resin - plugging takes place from the component side - however we are seeing solderballs after solder level.This is cau
