Hi, Thanks for the info. We are reflowing the boards, but just barely. Sometimes we get the QFP in the middle of the copper area not reflowing, and it's pain. The joints are dry, and I am not sure if it's caused by lack of heat, or the flux going ba

We agree with all of the previous comments, and would add the following: Warpage is generally caused by excess moisture in the raw boards. Have you tried baking the boards prior to assembly? We had this issue on a simple 4-layer board, and found t

| With current soldering of stranded wires to pcb assy's the wire tends to be very brittle and can break with very little movement of the wire. We use a low residue cored wire. Anybody with advice or who has seen a similar problem/knows how to overco

Bruce I�m with yall. Designers and fabricators say �pins�. You say: * BGA pins are 1mm [0.039�] pitch. * BGA pads are 0.4mm [0.0157�] diameter. * BGA pins are 0.6 mm [0.024�] side-to-side. * Board thickness is ~0.4 mm [0.015�] First, as you can

Are there existing acceptability dedicated criteria for ALIVH bare boards? (Equivalent to IPC-A-600) In particular, how can we assess copper foil cracking after thermal stress?

| I work QA at an OEM in Alberta, Canada. I saw earlier posts on the smtnet regarding PCB haloing criteria. I am currently in a dispute with my PCB vendor over the acceptability of haloing (delamination) around plated through holes and vias on a lot

Can someone clarify whether IPC-TM-650 Test Method 2.6.27 (Thermal Stress, Convection Reflow Assembly Simultation) is required for all bare board fabricators? Or is this test method optional, depending on the type or class of boards being fabricated

You really need to define what you mean when you say "bend" and when you say "break". You might have zero damage to a bare board but cracked solder joints and ceramic caps on an assembly, given the same amount of bending or stress. It all depends on
