Hi! I would like to know if there are any standards or norms as to how many lifted pads and open traces are allowed for repair within a printed circuit board. Does anyone know any guidelines to this? I know IPC says that it depends on the customer, well most customer don't know or don't say. Hope you guys have more quantitative answers here... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Technet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt delivery of Technet send the following message: SET Technet NOMAIL Search previous postings at: www.ipc.org > On-Line Resources & Databases > E-mail Archives Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-509-9700 ext.5315 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
