Or, it can apply to theiving pads which are
extra pads in
a SOIC footprint for a part that is going to
be wave soldered.
The extra pads are placed besides the last
pads of the footprint
that will be going over the wave.
Supposedly, this will prevent
solder bridges.
I haven't seen them used enough to tell you
whether or not that
works...

Thieving is nothing more than added copper
(usually in a specific pattern,
crosshatch, dots, etc) in non-functional
areas of the board, applied for the
purpose of providing a more uniform surface
area during electroplating.
Common uses are where there are long
isolated traces leaving areas of more
dense copper features.
Was that laymen?

Ok, I have to admit my lack of knowledge.
Can someone point me to a the Cliff's Notes
version of Theiving on PC
boards?
Thanks in advance.
