We once received parts in a matrix carrier with the ceramic up for pick and
place. The precision resistor data sheet that specified the ink was to face
the board. Wonder if yours is from this vendor.

Fellow TechNetters:

   I didn't get a response the first time, so I posted the second time.

Would the ceramic Rpac performance be compromised if installed with the
carbon ink touching/facing toward the PWB solder mask surface.?   I have
always seen these SMT facing up/away from the solder mask surface.
