Larry, You can try one of two approaches, a bake above 100C will drive off moisture or use a vacuum bake. The vacuum bake process is slow since there is less/no air to conduct the heat. In the hybrid industry the standard vacuum bake was 16 hours at

thanks for your reply, actually we bake the PCB assembly prior the rework because the package was exposed for quite some time already. The baking time was 24hrs @ 125 deg.C. We notice that there were flux residues on the connectors after the baking.

Does anyone have any information on baking boards to remove moisture before reflowing and waving assemblies? I've been told that we should do this to stop such problems as delamination of boards, blow holes, solder balls, etc. I don't know have any e

Baking boards, especially multi layer, will help with blowholes and delimitation, but not with solder balls. Normally about 120c for 1 hour or so is sufficient. I usually will not go to this trouble unless a board has proven to be a problem or if th
