Hi Technet,

I have a problem with  a batch of boards of which I know that an
estimated 50% of them have a problem with the soldermask. The mask
(Dynamask 5040 dry film) is flaking off the board, and we didn't notice
this because the mask is only applied underneath the components (and all
of them have a low standoff, which makes it impossible to inspect).
Now we need to  know which of the boards are affected, but desoldering
some of the parts to take a peek is not an attractive option as these
boards are already parylene coated.

I'm quite convinced that the answer is "no", but still I'd like to give
it a try and ask the following question:
Does there exists ANY technology (non-destructive) that makes it
possible to inspect the quality of the soldermask underneath components?
