| | | Hi Guys, | | | | | | I am going to be graced with the good luck of processing microBGA's in the near future. A bit of a step forward from printing 20-mil pitch and wave soldering 0805's, wouldn't you say? | | | | | | So, any of you folks who

On over printing, the general issues are: * Paste deposits being so large that when reflowing, collapse onto many, rather than a single solder mass. * Paste expanding during heating and being close to other solder deposits and bridging [as you say].

I'm not sure why anyone would pay extra for FG (fine grain) stencils. I've run studies comparing traditional YAG laser, fiber laser, and E-form stencils with regular stainless, FG, and nickel foils. YAG is the worse and should only be used for pret

We are just starting to manufacture a PCB with a .039" fine-line PBGA. We are currently seeing voids, mainly in the center, that are as much as 45%. We also intermittently see the corner balls of the PBGA smaller than the center balls. We are using a

Hi, In few weeks I want to test the capabilities of our SMT Line. To do that I'll design a board. I want to test: - The Printing - The component placement - The soldering - Different stencil aperture - Mixed Technology (Thr

Two thoughts from me: 1)Are you sure the balls are collapsed? Have you looked at the perimeter from the side with a scope? From your x-ray, it appears you are correct in saying they are collapsed as the balls get smaller in a uniform fashion as you

Thanks a lot for the response 1) there are 8 BGA on this board 6 PBGA, 1 TBGA and 1 ESBGA (metal lid). They are dispersed over the board (approx 11"* 14") 2) Is there a tool to use to understand pitch/bump size and stencil aperture (optimized)? 3) Y

Hi, We had it for a while, but had to take it out and replace it with normal convection. I mean the soldering quality is absolutely amazing, and the joints looked perfect, however it was a horror for tomb-stoning. We tried all types of stencil apert

We are attaching 0.50mm diameter SAC 305 solder balls onto 0.38 diameter Au plated pins placed at a 0.80mm pitch (pins are pressed into a plastic insulator). A tacky flux is then stenciled onto the pins using a stencil with.a 0.38mm diameter aperture

| | Hi Everyone, | | We plan to build, for reliability/experimental/research purpose some CSPs (namely Tessera microBGA 46-I/O 0/75mm pitch and TI 64 I/O 0/8 mm pitch). the various factors that we plan to evaluate are the reliability and assembly con
