Via filling methods are: * Tenting * Plugging * Capping * Flooding Tented Via. A via covered with dry film soldermask; the via is not filled. When tenting from both sides there may be issues with trapped air that expands during mass soldering. Plug

| | Q #1) Is it more reliable to have the mask tent over the vias or risk getting vias half filled with solder? These are vias with an .020" hole and .040" or .050" pad. WIth regards to this question, and scott's follow up, I have used the "epoxy me

We have no problems but orientation does matter. Orient with longest side of component body perpendicuar to wave. In other words the same preference as with through hole DIPS. Idea is the same as for through hole, that the surface tension will ten

For those of you who use via holes as test points, and the via holes must be filled at the wave, is it necessary to have a "dome" on every single test point, or is it sufficient to have the via "filled" with solder? The ICT preson here insists that

Hello Bachman. SAC305 is the most common lead-free solder alloy, not only for wave soldering but also selective. Most of our selective customers (especially automotive) are using SAC305. What is more important than the alloy to consider is the flux

Pete, is there a probe-style that will accomodate a via that's filled, but a little concave (inward) fillet? The ICT personnel complains about this scenario too. I'm not an ICT person, but I do know that there are pogo pins that have a crown (for t
