Dear All, Recently, we found a strange defect called "Head-in-pillow" defect at CPU socket BGA. The strange thing here is that this problem only appear on that CPU socket BGA and not on the others BGA which were also mounted on the PCB. We suspect

If this board is waved soldered than you may want to look at the wave causing the BGA to reflow a 2nd time when it goes over the wave. The board bows down and the the joint liquidfies and then hardens before the board fully goes back to flat which c

Hi I aa QE on SMT line that produce products for Home introduction. No so long ago we have a problem with soldering of BGA Head on Pillow (root cause mismatching customer requirements and BGA profile spec, suplier change %Ag) and our product affect

We are having non-wet (head in pillow) problems with Altera 484's similar to the problems discussed on 10/27 timeframe. Need contacts to those people having similar problems. Will those who had problems with Motorola 357 (ref Chris and Glenn on 10/

Hi Sean, It's an old problem with no definitive cure for now. However, there are a couple of things to look for. First of all the location(s) of HoP. If it was due to the componetn warpage, then it would be most probably in the middle and it should

We've gone through this a couple times. Once it was because the device was warping in reflow. We confirmed with shadow moire that the corners were lifting up. The supplier fixed some things in their molding process to reduce the warpage. Another

That would be correct. Some others call it `Head in Pillow'. The BGA balls are 63/37 and the board it's mounting to is HASL.

Tell us about: * Temperatures and times of the thermal profile * Where the thermocouples were mounted * Materials involved * Where in the process the 672 BGA component is soldered * Processes that follow that soldering

All, I have an intermittent faut with a 672 BGA where it fails in test but upon applying pressure to the BGA it works. Clearly there is an issue with the wetting of some Balls causing a poor connection. My profile looks spot on - I think I poste
