Thank you - that makes a lot of sense- these are all very small pads. Regards Steve Kelly

Subject: Re: [TN] Immersion gold thickness per 4552
I was one of the main drivers for ensuring that the cautionary note for Gold in excess of 5 microinches was flagged. If you are getting such high variability, I suggest doing two things then re-measuring.
1) Are the pads being measured at least 60mils x 60 mils (1.5mm x 1.5mm)? If not, the values may be off due to additional e saturation coming from the wrapped edges.
2) is your aperture sized smaller than the pads be measured? If not, select an aperture size smaller than the pad being measured.
