Thanks Dave,

Completely lost trace of Steve, please check this link http://ipc-technet.groupsite.com/galleries/show/25304

Unfortunately, I only have 1 pic.

Hi Ioan - I have recently ran into an plating process issue with immersion silver - the term being used to describe the anomaly is "trench etch".  This defect is made worst by lead-free soldering processes where copper dissolution comes into play. Your defect sounds like it could be "trench etch" but you have ENIG and not immersion silver. Please send Steve a couple of pictures of your defect and we'll try to sleuth out the root cause.

Dave

Hi Ioan - what is the assembly surface finish?

Dear Technos,

RoHS assembly, soldered with SAC305 alloy, 0.075" thick 14 layers PCB, failing after 250 cycles (-20 C to 125 C).

Failure mode is crack between the traces and pad at 3 places. Happens on 2 TH components. Traces are 0.0055" wide, pads are 0.022" in diameter on the via side or 0.065" on the component side. There is no tear dropping.

Should I bother figuring out if manual soldering of the TH component fragilizes the trace-pad junction, or this is an obvious case of design induced failure?

Thanks,
