Hi all good morning and need advice from expertise here. One of my customer complain that they have constantly issues with one of their product and ask us to do cross section.The report show there was “no wetting to the PCB copper pad” and cause the

Hi Gani, Looking at the pictures in the report it looks as if there is a thin coating of solder on the pcb pad....but it looks like the BGA sphere was barely in contact with the pad. This could be caused by insufficient solder paste on this pad...may

hi All, Here i snap shot previous PCB(HASL) and current PCB(Immersion Silver).Base on the photo it could be PCB oxidize cause the non wetting?

Hi Sir grahamcooper22, There should not a issue in stencil since i had open the aperature 1:1(one to one).Futhemore this is HASL pcb coating as now our customer had convert to immersion silver.I had do comparison between both and found HASL wetting n

Based on the last few pictures in the report, the root cause is lousy HASL. In fact, you don't have HASL - you've got SnCu intermetallic. Don't mess with your reflow profile, change paste, or monkey with anything else in your process. Have the boar

Hi Gani, looking at the HASL icture and the poor wetting of the solder over the pads I would imagine that the HASL coating is very thin on the pads and in actual fact isn't 'solder' but is tin /copper intemetallic and this has poor solderability. It

Take a solder iron with some wire solder and attempt to tin the leads of the component. Look under magnifier or microscope. Did they wet? If not try fluxing them with liquid flux and then soldering again. Did they wet? If they did not then you may wa

Have you tried using Concoat MUST II solderability tester to test on the component terminal are of good solderability. Non-wetting may occur due to oxidation or contamination on component terminal. So for immediate response to you problems is to used

Thanks guys. I am from a subcon, we can't change the solder paste supplier and there is only one approved vendor for this component. I think I will try on the component solderability. Regards
