Available soon at http://defectsdatabase.npl.co.uk, the confidential database will amass common problems and make images freely available for engineers to implement corrective actions in processes or designs.

The surveys are aimed at PCB manufacturers/distributors/brokers (http://defectsdatabase.npl.co.uk/surveys/pcb.pdf); component manufacturers & distributors (http://defectsdatabase.npl.co.uk/surveys/components.pdf); and printed circuit board assembly companies (http://defectsdatabase.npl.co.uk/surveys/assembly.pdf).
