Out-of-tolerance zero ohm resistors

Well, they did invent the omega.

Well, a BGA ball doesn't sit very stably on a solder-coated convex-bump pad. Try stacking two basketballs; the upper one tends to slide off.

That's true for thick gold. A few microinches of gold will immediately dissolve into the solder and become only a trace component.

Maybe that is why "too much" is never used on PCB pads.

One has to 'wet', then release or wick, then re-wet", then repeat with gold cup mil std solder pins... NOT circuit pads. Not much else at all, in fact.

There is no embrittlement on PCB assemblies. Doh! Edge connected or through-hole SMA connectors or other gold plated "connectors" and test pins MAYBE, but not likely. Mil std connector pins using solder cups not crimps.... definitely, abated by using the above described procedure. PCB pads... NOT!

You read a lot, but understand little, much less KNOW. Or you would know the difference between one micron and several. And your little dogs too.

I like Scmoo Gold. Made by Belgian monks...

Those Belgian monks don't seem to have time for praying. All they do is make beer.

It was supposed to read schmoo.. A play on Chimay.

If you mean to say that its noise level would be 4kT|R|, then, no. Of course, it does add noise, but it may be more or less, depending.

Piss poor stencil thickness leading to piss poor job.. Piss poor paste efficacy. Likely left out too long before reflow as well.

It had/has not a goddamned thing to do with the gold PCB pads.
