I recall a couple of papers in the SMTA 'Knowledgebase' that used ball shearing and an element in a study that compared BGA [maybe uBGA] component fabrication methods, er sumpin.

I was wondering if anyone could direct me towards documentation on shear test methods/apparatus to test the bond integrity of a solder ball to its substrate. Thanks.

Shear tests are [in my opinion] senseless. The shear stress you measure depends more on the shear rate and on the point where the force is applied than on the grain structure. When shearing a component, you not only apply shear stress, but also roll

BGA rework equipment: Search the fine SMTnet Archives to find threads like: http://www.smtnet.com/Forums/Index.cfm?CFApp=1&Message_ID=48736 Use x-ray inspection to identify the obvious defects such as shorts, missing balls and gross solder voids.

Has anyone had any success in finding open circuits (i.e. ball present but not soldered to PCB) under collapsible BGA's using an Agilent HP5DX x-ray tester and the BGA2 algorithm? Can anyone recommend an elongated pad design which produces the neces

Circuits Assembly magazine 09/99 "Defluxing with Ultrasonics" by Les Hymes. [There's more but I can't find it right now. I'll add to this as I find the junk, er very nice stuff.] J-STD-001C states that its OK to use ultrasonics for cleaning so lon
