Hi Rudy,
We electroplate gold everyday with no photoresist- why would you need a
photoresist in the electroplate area? Regards Steve Kelly

Harris:
Perhaps the single biggest difference between electrolytic and immersion
gold, besides the self-limiting aspect of immersion gold, thus limiting
thickness, is that immersion gold covers the entire trace, including
sides. Electrolytic gold must be applied with a photoresist on the board,
and thus the sides of the traces are exposed Copper.
Electrolytic gold is applied on top of electrolytic Nickel MOST of the time,
there are some people doing direct gold on top of Copper, but it is quite
thick. Plating Copper under the Nickel is unnecessary.

Hi guys,
Can you please help to differentiate the two surface finishes? Also, is
Electrolytic Gold done in Cu-Ni-Au plating line or there is another way?
Thanks in advance,
Harris
