Scott: Sounds like fun: � Solder joint strength in pull/shear varies with lead geometry, solder volume, lead metal/metallization, and the test method. � Among things, IPC-TM-650 talks to getting pads off-of boards. For instance: Method 2.4.8 is for

We have few failures similar to the discussion in this thread, on a 50 Mil pitch, 30 Mil mill Ball PBGA. Would like to understand the mechanism of the BGA reflow process bit more. Appreciate your response to the following. 1.We sheared few solder ba

Hi mates, I did a recent shear test (destructive test), on a uBGA liken product, and noted the post-shear solder joint, had clean "smooth" visual appearance under the uBGA pad, however the matching pcb pad was clearly lifted clean. Question: 1) how

We find that the raw BGA's pad sheared surface has the SnPb solder at various Z heights whereas the assembled BGAs pad leave a smooth layer of SnPb along the pad. Like to understand the cause for the difference. Who could guess? Solder joint streng

Sorry, we didn't do a good job of understanding your question. For more on delamination, look here: http://www.smtnet.com/Forums/Index.cfm?CFApp=1&Message_ID=54655 ... but we're not so sure that this is a straight delamination issue, because: * One

If there's no shear strength standard for solder joint, how will I define my pad width and length then. I have a 8.5 mils width and my component lead width is 8.66 mils based on manufacturer's minimum width specification. How will I identify that it

This is the dilema during this transition period. Here is a tip: If you see typcial solder joints on a lead free process, but only on one component type....it probably has a significant quantity of lead in it (ex. Sn90/Pb10...and so on) If using T

| Anyone using SMT "Fair-Rite" beads? We have a P/N 2743019447 that we're using. We need to know the shear force strength of the part and the vendor's man who knows is in Deutschland and can't help until Monday. I can't wait that long. | | Also, do

There is no standard. This is a relative test. If you wish to do tests of this kind, we suggest to pay attention to the following points: * Shear strength of soft solder depends on the deformation speed applied. The faster the material is deformed t

Continuing, I�ve optioned about the uselessness of shear testing of solder connections on this forum previously. So, the points that you make about the elusiveness of developing a standard for measuring solder connection strength is well taken. I�l
