In regards to baking an assembly prior to hot air (BGA) rework.... 1) Do people always bake, sometimes or never? Does this depend on whether MS sensitive components are near the rework site? If a BGA is to be removed and reballed, baking is a no-br

1) Do people always bake, sometimes or never? Does this depend on whether MS sensitive components are near the rework site? If a BGA is to be removed and reballed, baking is a no-brainer. Sometimes, based on the proximity of the MS components. >2)

What is a typical time/temp baking cycle for an assembly prior to BGA rework? This bake is intended to prohibit PCB or nearby component damage as well as protect the component being removed for reball. A 24 hr bake at 125C would be great, but often

The need to prebake boards to remove moisture from the board [to prevent voiding] prior to wave soldering is driven by the thickness of through hole plating. * 1 thou [25um] or greater requires no prebaking * LT 1 thou [25um] requires prebaking

It depends on the laminate but a PWB is like any other MSL component. Some fab shops are only waranting standard FR4 laminates for 45-60 days when processed at lead free temperatures. The best thing I can say is to try some weight gain/loss experim

Does anyone have any input on the need to bake out an assembly prior to the conformal coat process? I understand baking out components/pwb's prior to processing through the reflow or wave solder process if the material shows excess moisture absorbtio

Hi Cecil, We using conformal coating in our manufacturing area, we did use to use Humiseal, others have been Bectron and Peters. We recentalt switched all lacquering to Peters, since it is lead free and it is a lot friendly than Humiseal. To answer
