Abstract

An improvement in the preparation of printed circuits comprises inserting a deformable layer between the phototool or support layer, and the solder mask. The deformable layer provides a uniform, integral and relatively thin coating of solder mask over circuit components, and results in higher-quality solder joints and lower rejection rates for finished boards.
