Strange, because they had been OK for years. But we paid them for 100%
bare-board testing, and it was obvious that we didn't get it.
Were the via photos made before or after passing the boards
through solder ovens?
That was an as-received bare board.
It could be that the boards - at least the ones they shipped us! -
passed electrical bare-board testing but failed after reflow. At any
rate, there was clearly a plating problem.
