Pad cratering is a mechanically induced fracture in the resin between copper foil and outermost layer of fiberglass of a printed circuit board (PCB). It may be within the resin or at the resin to fiberglass interface. Do you have ever problems about pcb pads? please talk here.
Pad is the basic constituent elements of the surface mount assembly used to form the land pattern of the circuit board, that is, various combinations of pads designed for special component types. Ther...(view more)

Does the conductor spacing requirement in IPC-600G apply to pads? Does it include the nickel/gold finish or only the underlying copper?(view more)
It is very common to relate ENIG pad surface finishing with BLACK PAD defect. However, is anyone know why BLACK PAD defect only happen on fine pitch pad areas such as BGA, QFP? Why this defect did not...(view more)
I received a request from customer to assemble ceramic substrate (alumina oxide)that printed with a low temperature Copper thick film conductor (the overglaze layer is polymer). The Copper pads are ex...(view more)
Hi All, I am producing a lot of high cost PCBA where the PCB material is the `ROGER' material. Due to some of the high components and handling we get pad lifted issues sometimes and as of now ar...(view more)
