I have seen a lot of talk on Technet recently regarding Cu Ni Sn board 
finishes.  Is this the same thing as what I have heard called "Soldermask 
over Tin/Nickel" or "The Santa Clara Process"?  If so, does anyone have a 
summary of the benefits/problems associated with this process?
   
Thanks,

>From Nickel we have dragout rinses followed by a spray rinse, then
to a 10% sulfuric pre-dip before Tin plate. After copper plate we
also have a light microetch before the Nickel to eliminate the
possibility of peeling at the Cu/Ni interface.
