BGA's are not difficult, but should be inspected no matter how careful you are. Here we have been doing bga's forever and x-ray 100%. Without an x-ray there is no good way to ensure the BGA is placed properly, without bridging or insufficients. If yo

Dave and Russ, Today we modified the profile to ramp up slowly and have longer preheat time. The result is great, 0 out of 5 without bridging. I did review the FAB design and seen the pad is much biger than ball size. So I guess it is the problem.

Are there any tantalum caps near the BGA? I have seen "wet" tant caps releasing moisture during reflow and disrupting the BGA balls. It may result in missing balls or bridging.

| Hi, | We are having problem with yield loss due to electrical fail. Further investigation shows that the failure is due to solder bridging under BGA. Has been there any study or experience on how this could occur and what we can do to prevent it.

A 50KV machine will allow you to see solder bridges and balls under the BGA. It will also allow you to check placement and can "see" through the metal housing. If you want to inspect for voids, then you what to look at equipment in the 100KV range.

Dear Robert The reason for the bridging problem you are experiencing on your BGA's is due because of too much solder. The PCB pads need to be at least 15% larger than the sphere size of the BGA balls. If you are not using C4 (63/37) BGA spheres and
