I am looking for the same. IPC 610D does mention about the solder fill based on the class (A,B,C). But, there is no exhaustive study that I have come across. Please let me know if you find any. KT

| A user of one of our components exceeded the floor life of some plastic BGA components. They did do a pre-bake prior to SMT reflow but only 72 hrs at 40C and not the recommended 12 hours at 125C. I've recommended accoustic microscopy to look for po

| Looking for articles/data comparing the quality/reliability of mass | reflowed SMT solderjoints versus hand soldered SMT solderjoints. As solder joint quality most often is subjective - that is visually compared with graphic examples, IPC is the B

The criterion you use will depend on the test method you select. For minimum requirements, look at J-STD-001C, Para 8, "Cleanliness Requirements". I figure that you�d measure the residues on a lot of your current product, measure the res on a lot o
