I believe that solder paste will need to be applied to this part. I have re-balled these in the past in a low volume situation and here is what I did and there appears to be no adverse effects to the component. Get a stencil (I use 8 mil for .032"

So if I get this right, your customer wants you to run this product as pb free even though it is not. In order to run this as pb free you need to run pb free paste. If you use 63/37 paste at the higher temps I believe that in addition to the compon

Ken you say reaching 218 to 221 C will give a homogenus solder ball. The pb free solder balls on the BGA reflow at 235 C to 238 C but I have seen when you combin to differnt types of solder say 63-37 and 10-90 you will atually lower the melting point

We're not sure what you mean by temperature sensitive components. From an assembly process stand-point, every component we use is temperature sensitive to one level or another. More specifically, some of our products use polyphenylene sulfide (PPS)

SMT assembly, First, you must utilize paste otherwise the parts will not stay put. Do you have any leaded devices such as QFPs or SOICs? Dispensing paste by hand is very difficult and time consuming for these types of parts. You can either dispense

Hi all, We produced a RoHS (lead-free) prototype order recently, and there was some components that we needed to replace on a couple of PCBA's. We found it very hard to do this even with the new solder iron. The components was just small RoHS SOIC's

We find that the raw BGA's pad sheared surface has the SnPb solder at various Z heights whereas the assembled BGAs pad leave a smooth layer of SnPb along the pad. Like to understand the cause for the difference. Who could guess? Solder joint streng

How do you know that "approx 450�C" is "too high"? As a side, the temperature on the temperature sensor is: * Inaccurate. * Not the temperature at the solder. Listen, operators are smart people. They have figured-out that they can solder faster wi

We are currently struggling with a particularly difficult component selection form our designers. This is a custom BGA, 592 balls, metal cover with a very large bead of adhesive using to retain the cover. We have had significant fallout (greater th

I agree with the two other replies. Left alone, it is a defect. If it's just excess adhesive or coating, you can use IPC-7711/7721 'Rework, Modification and Repair of Electronic Assemblies' for guidance on removing. Section 2.3.1 explains how to te
