Dave,
 
We would either use a jumper wire looped over the top of the QFP and soldered to both leads, or use a short length of bare wire bridging the 2 leads. Wouldn't suggest a solder bridge alone. You can see a little more about jumper wire on our web site at http://www.circuittechctr.com/guides/6-1.htm.

Subject: [TN] Rework Specification

We have a fine pitch QFP which requires rework to short 2 adjacent pins.
Is there a specification which outlines the requirements for such rework?
Is it acceptable to use a solder bridge rather than a jumper wire?

Thanks,
