Dason, I apologize if some of the information sounds redundant but I don't think I explained my point very well (and the standard can get really confusing at times). I definitely agree with using C-SAM to look for internal defects. My only advise i

A user of one of our components exceeded the floor life of some plastic BGA components. They did do a pre-bake prior to SMT reflow but only 72 hrs at 40C and not the recommended 12 hours at 125C. I've recommended accoustic microscopy to look for popc

Greg, If you are having a problem, i would first check board manufacturers process. Also are they shipping boards to you in seal packages (a must if you are in a humid part of the country.) Most of the time with a few simple process controls moistur

What experience does anyone have with a MS level 6 SMT component? I have a part that must go from component baking to reflow within six hours. According to the component mfg, a sealed MS bag w/ desicant is not sufficient protection to increase the
