That�s a 672 BALL BGA, bud!!! It�s a BIG Mutha!!! [I know. I know. For some reason suppliers call balls "pins".] Let�s focus on: * Clarifying the units on your PCB and aluminum plate thickness measurements. * Describing your use of the aluminum pl

If the board is HASL you may always have trouble. Try to reduce the amount of paste by either reducing aperture size of stencil thickness. Jerry

The only problems I've ever had with 208's shifting out of alignment was with a board with too much HASL thickness. The lands had a convex profile and the parts kept slipping downslope. We put down a glue dot and ranted at our board supplier. Both

I used to build flash memory products for M-Systems. Up to 30,000 per week. Nothing special in the process for these boards. 1mm and 0.4mm thick std. FR4 PCBs are used. Double-Sided reflow. The 0.4mm thin boards require process carriers. Panelized 24

| | I am looking for a rule of thumb regarding the maximum ramp standard components (chip capacitors) can tolerate without failure during the reflow process. The standard seems to be 3C\second, but this figure is generally derived from the average r

Hi ji tae, we had a similar problem with QFPs 0,5 pitch processed by one subcontractor. The symptoms we noticed were: - the solderjointshape and wetting looked normal - the surface had a dull gray appearance - by pushing a lead sideways with a tweez

Good morning, Once again a met annoying solder beading issue while producing board with PLL (leadless, contacts from the bottom side of the package). Board has very high placement density and beads appear near PLL package only. This package is finep

Laser cut 0.13mm stencil thicknes works great for us. BTW, are we talking RoHS solder paste? We do reduce the stencil apertures to 88 % of the pads when we go for the RoHS solder paste. Otherwise we go fo 96% reduction in general with some excemption
