Put on your Chemical Thinking Caps..... We are ablating the mask of a PCB which was over a copper layer. This exposes copper. Outside of an electrical test (no can do) how could we use a fast non-destructive test in order to determine that copper (

I don't believe I have ever seen a non-destructive test for "Black Pad" that I could take back to a Fab house and collect monetary losses with... But if this test method actually does hold merit then collect away. I would like to know how this metho

Joris We don�t know the maximum period to store the boards without having problems with blowholes. Too many variables to determine. We prefer to just fix the problem, but understand that you have stock that you need to build-down. Determining mois

| It seems like most people want to X-Ray their BGAs. We're going to start doing a lot more of them and need to consider X-ray, too. | Q: Do most people/companies X-ray everyBGA or do they just do SPC? | Q: Can you get away with spending 25K? 30K? H

One diagnostic tool that I have found useful in the past is the "hot plate test". Place suspect components and/or PCB's on a hot plate and turn it on High. Then observe. Granted the conditions on the hot plate are not the same as in a reflow oven,

First, what on the area array package are you analyzing � * Package cracking? * Cracked solder balls? * Er, what? Second, most failure analysis discussions consider dye penetration to be a non-destructive test, but then again most failure analysis
