Let me start with, I know that we should not rely on the LPI solder mask
as an insulator. So I need recommendations for a simple and cost
effective solution.
Problem parameters; 0.062 thick FR-4 with 2 oz copper and LPI mask. PTH
components laying on traces that go under the parts. PTH parts are
shorting to the traces.
Our fab house is against adding a second layer of LPI mask. On face
value a second layer sounds good and easy, but I know there are issues
too long to list.
Short of raising the components above the board, applying an insulator
under the components or a new board layout is there a better way of
preventing this shorting problem?
Thanks in advance.
