whats the pitch of the BGA�s and the stencil thickness?

The BGA pitch is 0.8 mm and stencil thickness is 0.005"

Hi, I'm having a lot of problems with BGA's shorts, we are using 0.005" stencil aperture 1 to 1 (0.014)", the paste is centre (I can not measured the height)was verified using electronic microscopie, the placement is centre (I'm using local fiducials

These random shorts, are they most prevailent on the edges, corners, or truly all over the place. It almost sounds like package warp/delamination or something of that nature. Are you baking parts per MSL requirements?

You might wanna try a small reduction in your stencil aperture. For example, for a 30-mil pad go 26-mil square aperture with 8 to 10-mil radius on your corners. Also, look at your designs. Is there enough resist between your pad and ball? Another

pyramus, First, search the fine SMTnet Archives for previous discussions on BGA shorts. Second, we're still not clear on the issue. * Is the problem with a BGA? If so, please describe the BGA, including any heat spreader * Is the problem with a uB

Zam_bri: If it were a mystery .... there can�t be any answers . Possible causes: - Short is in the PCB ( not very propable, cause you�ve checked that ) - Short is in the BGA ( not very propable, cause you�ve checked that ) - Short occurs due to so

Shorted to the sheild or the BGA balls are shorted? Sheilds move a lot during reflow. If this is the case, place some adhesive or peelable solder mask on either side of the shield and baords to stop it from moving.

You can make bare BGA balls short together, depending on how you choose to heat the device. Lookit .. [http://davesmt.50megs.com/pictures/ select bgashortng.avi]

Hi, Guy, please check the lamination of the PCB's; or the the BGA rework machine, some things like m/c levelling, and force placement head
