Hi, Is the IPC-A-610 applicable to CSP assemblies? Especially regarding the solder ball to solder ball distance versus the minimum electrical clearance for assembly(0.13mm/IPC-A-610). With a 0.4mm pitch component and 260 microns diameters balls, thi

IPC 610 says acceptable Class 1 (Class 2, 3 indicator) if they are entrapped/encpsulated balls within 0.13mm of lands or pads. or exceed 0.13mm in diameter. Defect Class 1,2,3: Solder ball violates min electrical clearance. Solder balls not entrap

Hello there, Most probably, since the solder balls are entrapped, it is a process indicator, but refer to IPC 610-6.5.3.1 on Excess solder / solder balls / splashes - it really depends on what class you are manufacturing, and the minimum electrical c

IPC 2221B mentions a minimum clearance of 0.5 mm between adjacent holes. A drill-to-drill spacing of 20 mils is a standard value in manufacturer design rules. For small annular rings and pad-to-pad clearance, the minimum via distance is often defin

Defect if its not coated. Defect - Class 1,2,3 • Solder balls are not entrapped, encapsulated or attached or can become dislodged in the normal service environment. • Solder balls violate minimum electrical clearance.

Solder ball attached on solder joint without violation minimum electrical clearance is acceptable. If your process parameter including stencil not changed, suggest you check if solder pasted being pushed out after IC placement, also check if solder j

The solder balls you are talking about are caused by too much paste. Reduce the size of the stencil aperatures. Concerning removing the solder balls, the first thing you need to ask yourself is, do I need to remove them. IPC-610, 12.4.10 states, "Ac

You give no clue of what you want to write about. Let's try this: J-STD-001, 8.3.1 Particulate Matter says words to the effect of solder balls / splats shall be neither: * Loose or able to be dislodged during normal service � NOR * Violate minimu

Wow, rocket science with Nasa specs! I like it. I don't see the trick question here, so I'll continue.... IPC simply states over hang of round or flattened (coined) leads is acceptable (class 1, 2, & 3) if it "does not violate minimum electrical c

IPC-A-610 uses words to the effect that it�s a Class 2 process indicator, if either: * Entrapped or encapsulated solder balls that are within 0.13 mm [0.00512 in] of lands or connectors, OR * Entrapped or encapsulated solder balls exceed 0.13mm [0.00
