Surface contamination in the form of visible residues on electronic PCBAs, such as white spots, streaks or solder beads, can have various effects on the functionality of your electronic PCBAs - from harmless to total failure.
There are various reasons for the occurrence of such contamination, some of which we will discuss in this white paper. Suitable optimisation proposals are also presented.
