Hi Werner,
That is obviously your choice but I'd prefer to stick with mine :-)
I still think that BP and BF are two completely different phenomena and
the fact that BF occurs not just on ENIG boards, but with almost all
other finishes (of cause only for Pb-free solders) makes me think that
I'm right.
Be careful with using/interpreting EDS for fracture surfaces. It's NOT
that straight forward.
Regards,
Vladimir

Hi Vladimir,
For BP I am really only concerned about the surface, so EDS is
fine--after all it is the interface surface that is weak.
Cavitation (as a ME that word bothers me because cavitation is what a
propeller does in water) is a sign of the P notdoing its job.
So I stand by my definition.
