@vxo smt components are shit!!! this post brought to you by through hole gang
yeah i got nothing i mean they're probably cheap enough that it's not like you can complain to anybody for a refund or something. manufacturing defect?
@mavica_again I'm thinking one of three things:
1) they somehow died of humidity after the bag was opened (this one makes very little sense though - it's humid enough in here that you eventually have to bake your PLA filament, but not enough that things corrode)
2) manufacturing defect (severe)
3) these are fake slugs
@mavica_again I have never had this issue with through-hole, unfortunately the application pretty much requires small SMT parts. I'm so baffled right now.
So far it looks like maybe, oh, 5-10% of the resistors on the tape work.
