What is the pad surface finish on these boards? I know OSP and silver finishes have a shorter shelf life than HASL or gold. We do not use OSP or silver on our boards so I don't know what to look for visually on the pads when they have exceeded the

My company uses a SAC387 ribbon for stamping solder onto connectors before shipping to a customer. This stamping process creates a lot of SAC387 excess that we send off to be recycled at a very low price. This excess would be great for wave soldering

I did not see the histogram image (didn't scroll down). My point about the flat metal surfaces is they should have a large white total under top-light with red filter. You should be able to distinguish between the two (fillets and no fillets). I k

I will mention purchasing the updated software with him but last time he looked into it he decided against it. So I was trying to see what we could with what we currently have. As for blue filtering, we don't have that that I've seen. Red or white
