Hello Technetters, Question for clarification on IPC Class 3 requirement with regards to Hard Gold Plating on Edge Fingers: Which IPC specification states the "stub" remaining on a gold edge finger, (example see photo in IPC-A-610D, Figure 10-1) is allowable? Or, is there a spec in IPC that says that it's NOT acceptable. Thank you!
