Has anyone had any success in finding open circuits (i.e. ball present but not soldered to PCB) under collapsible BGA's using an Agilent HP5DX x-ray tester and the BGA2 algorithm? Can anyone recommend an elongated pad design which produces the neces

The BGA-2000 is an old system thats correct ! I am a BGA-3500 user (the newest version)with windows software and a large underboard heather, i am verry happy with the system after using an APE wich was verry bad for my aplication. There is a posibili

could be black pad, or it is just bad reflow profile that did not get all balls soldered down. OR it could be a planarity issue between BGA and fab during assembly. Can we assume that this is proven design? Somewtimes in new design touching a BGA

Wow, what a bunch of crabby old men. BGA opens can occur from pre,during or post process. I never chimmed in cause the original poster said they would performa a dye test. Yet as usual, they never get back to this forum on what the cause was. So

We have BGA connectors on rigid laminate. Points are: * We love BGA connectors for mating mother/daughter boards because they eliminate the wave solder step required for PTH connectors. * BGA connectors are very tricky to assemble, much trickier than

I agree with Bob, Do you have a long TAL, ENIG needs a longer TAL then other boards, on the side of this, Latest year there are a lot of bad Au plated boards, we had 3 batch of bad plated boards in the last year. indeed maybe the problem isn't the

| This question is directed to anyone having eperience with Sn62Pb36Ag2 solder balls for BGA's. | Have you seen anything like a rough, raisin-like surface texture after ball attach? If so, what did you do about it? | | Thanks! | Jenna: We've used

Are the local fids. necessary? Anyway, I can't think of any reason the local fids. would have to be spaced exactly the same distance from the part. We place BGA's and QFP's using board fids, and have yet to find a problem that local fids helped fix.

Hi, We have a BGA that uses .4mm diameter PCB pads on the BGA itself, however we have decided to use .5mm pads on the PCB, to help paste release from the stencil. Is this a bad thing, having different size pads on the PCB compared to the BGA itself

Hi, I was looking for information on failure rates for BGA components. I am analyzing our BGA rework rates and find it difficult to define a root cause when a remove and replace of the BGA component corrects the test errors. Inspection prior to re
