Hi All We are facing problem with solderability of BGA connector. After Xray we have found open under BGA connector. After removing from PCB it seems some copper pads are still gold. We are not sure why this is happening. We have 5 thou stencil and

It seems to be no solder paste release at certain stencil opening, you may need to enlarge the stencil opening. By the way what is the area ratio for the opening and how is the shape (round/square/diamond)?

Andrew, we need a lot more information to help. 1. what is the open caused from? bemt pins, non-wetting, board bowing, or no paste deposited. 2. What is your current stencil design? 3. What does this connector look like and what are the pins? Rus

Hi, I need help on how to address the solder wicking on the samtec searay connector after reflow resulting to open solder joints on thick and thermal heavy PCB (4.4mm and 6.3mm). I increased my solder paste thickness to 8 mils, the connector is manua

Hi Evtimov, Thanks again! The solder wicking/open solder joint is not actually gross rejection, it is only a few and appeared random (difficult to trend the location of the opens), what is perflexing is that i have this 1 or 2 open solder joints sur

Avillaro, would you say that vapor phase process was selected, because the boards are so thick and heavy? I would assume so. Have you ever tried to run them through reflow oven? To understand better your challenge, we need to understand the setup be

Hi Phil, thanks. I am successful using the same connector on small thinner boards 2-2.5kg) i cant make it work, tried all kinds of profiles with vapour phase but to no avail. Yes you read it right 4.3-6.3mm pcb thickness and 2-2.5Kg. And it is 44 lay

Use a back door connector. Place and reflow the connector like any other. But, the PC bosrd is cut open directly under the connector allowing the male portion to go thru the PCB and mate with the female connector. Both PCBs would have SMDs mounted
