Tombstoning is a term in the chip soldering industry describing a situation wherein a soldering defect causes a chip component to stand up on end (like a tombstone), leaving one end soldered to the board and the other end free. It is caused during the reflow soldering process where non-uniform melting causes an unbalanced force to be applied to the chip from the solder.
