Help! i just rec'd my next job from our marketing people and it has a .5mm pitch BGA 8mmX8mm size. Along with this kit came the stencil. So, I have never placed this fine of a BGA before and I am pretty worried about the stencil releasing the past

We are experiencing a problem with soldermask defined BGA pads not accepting solder during the reflow process. The paste is there when the boards come off the printer but after reflow, no paste. Some other pads in the same pattern are fine. Here is t

One more thing: I have a Panelized PCB with 8 boards on the X directions. As I move to the next PCB towards the right my misalignment moves to the right by 0.02mm. By the time I reach the 8th PCB I'm Off by between 0.12mm to 0.14mm. My fine pitch

We are running a project that is 5 years old. We have yet to resolve all of the issues. Out biggest is warping due to the board being .012" thick. We have created a custom pallet (ricocel) and pallet cover (FR4) to sandwich the board but I am afraid

Our CP45 swing mirror motor (Panasonic AC Servo Motor: MSMA012A3A) recently jammed and required replacement. I replaced the motor with a new one however it won't home. A link to a video of the motor attempting to home can be seen below. I am wonderin

The material is 0.12mm stainless steel, electropolished it's thick for fine pitch but we have lot of other big components on the board which do not solder good if we use 0.1mm thickness stencil. The 0.3 mm apretures are big enough and have good rele

Thanks. It starts to make sense. There is a formula at the bottom of this page: http://www.circuitinsight.com/programs/50456.html It says: Stencil Thickness = 2.64mil + 0.0831 * pitch of component in mil. for 1.13mm, that gives exactly 0.16mm. So,

How can I upload image to this forum? I can show you the pad layout. I am thinking maybe too much solder. I used 0.16mm thick stencil but notice many us 0.12mm thickness. Also, cream layer is 100% of pad surface, I know for fine pitch parts it is r

From the picture, I cannot see clearly solder ball violate electrical clearance or cause a short, maybe it is. What I can see is the solder paste has some misalignment although it doesn't printed in solder mask area, but actual position will reduce

I've some special nozzles for melf packaged diodes. When I am trying to mount it on pcb, nozzle picks up the diode and place it well. After 5-6 times of placing, diodes keep drops down to it's package from nozzle. It's like the vacuum doesn't enough
