Hi Lance,
No solder
Let me add another picture to the story.

Chris,

        I think your picture shows an "E" crack and the initial plating 
has separated from the copper that was subsequently plated.   Is that 
solder in the area where the platings are separated?

Thanks,
Lance

Hi Everyone,

Attached is a picture of a thru-hole corner after thermal stress.  The 
plating is pulse.  I believe the corner was 'burnt' because of the 
geometry of the (conformant) negative etchback.  All the corners show 
burn; some show blisters; only this one cracked.

In your opinion, what are the non-conformance(s) if any?


Thanks

Chris
