IPC-7525 "Stencil Design Guidelines" is a good reference document to have. Here are notes from a Tessera, (a major mBGA mfg.), study- "Application Note Solder Stencil Requirement for mBGA" The stencil aperture is to be square, equal in size to the l

Thanks Dave...it's such a good site for reworking BGA's (reballing). But what about when it comes to re-attaching the BGA onto the PCB? We are using Flextac Stencils but I found out that the apertures of their stencil is bigger than our pads for the

Good afternoon, You should use overprint technique if you have any problems with paste volume (PIH technology and mixed designs, for instance). Otherwise, it is useless. Overprint has to be made in such way so that paste would have an ability to flo

In my experience there is no need for wet wiping stencils. We run 0201'and micro BGA's daily with no issues. If you are having paste release issues, I would be looking at other things. Aperture area aspect ratio, aperture design, land design, sold

Hi all , We are trying to implement the micro-BGA technology at our plant. I need the clarification to the following points: 1. Is underfill required for micro-BGAs? 2. What type of stencil apertures are the industry standards for uBGAs and of wha

If you have room, and the aperture size will allow for it, try a 5 mil overall stencil thickness with a 1 mil step-up in the area of the BGA connector.

Dear Robert The reason for the bridging problem you are experiencing on your BGA's is due because of too much solder. The PCB pads need to be at least 15% larger than the sphere size of the BGA balls. If you are not using C4 (63/37) BGA spheres and

This is what I would propose, Place and reflow the board without the BGA with your lead process, remove the solder from the BGA pads if you cannot mask off the apertures in your stencil. Then place the BGA and reflow to SAC requirements with a rewo
