Based on X-ray imaging, IPC-7095 standard specifies three categories for void size for BGA solder joints. These categories are based on the percentage of joint cross sectional area occupied by the voided area. Class III Small: Void area is LT 9% Cla

Your customer is correct. Your supplier has clamped some sort of machine to your butt and has plugged it in the wall outlet. Honest mistake: * IPC-A-600H, 3.3.2 Lifted Lands - (Cross Sections) ... pertains to boards that were cross sectioned after t

If your words imaged correctly, it seems a bit strange to have a trace that is wider than the pad where it connects, because we�re used to seeing a narrower trace connecting to a wider pad. It�s tough to determine what the designer was thinking abou

We found repeated pad lifted after different SMT Reflow temperature (eg: 243 deg C and 233 deg C) at an isolated slot. The PCB Supplier had claimed that such condition is acceptable as per IPC 600H Clause 3.3.2 (Cross Sections) - eg: Acceptable - C

I hope Dave is saying that your supplier is pulling the wool over your eyes, and not describing the actual event.

Well something is different isn't it? * Paste * Part supplier * Board fabrication * Was the profile that you reference the measured temperature or the the settings keyed into the oven? The cross sections seem to show less than expected ball collapse

If you wanted to use ultrasonics to wash an customer's assembly, and you'd had poor success doing it in the past, would you consider it reasonable for the customer to request that YOU provide cross-sectional image analysis of the first batch of new p

A full blown analysis could become very expensive. There are many test that can be performed. 3D acoustic microscopy, X-ray, Dye and pry,and I'm sure the list goes on. Typically, a micro-cross section report of the BGA solder joints will show you w
