Ref e-mail from Eric Bernal at Pragmatech, Sunnyvale, Ca

Eric,

We at GenRad us the solder thief technique whereby and extra set of SOIC solder
pads are added to the last set of pads to see the solder wave. If all your IC's
are flowed in the same direction (i.e. the wave should pass along the length of
the IC) it then becomes a case of pads sizes and flux selection.

We use the IPC standard pad sizes for most devices including SOIC's which seem
to work.

Good luck!
