Muse, I agree. There has been much debate but the previous scenarios discussed in the forum have been regarding the SAC/RoHS BGA and Sn-Pb paste. I have successfully collapsed a SAC BGA with a Sn-Pb paste using the "hybrid" profile that Amol refers

I do not doubt about the power of the 552 and 580, but in some cases it may be overdone. For just a simple (straight forward) shear test, you can also look at: http://www.chatillon.com/products/dpp.html (�Low Capacity Mechanical Force Gauge. These er

Paste In Hole "PIH" or Pin In Paste "PIP" are two different names of the same process. As far as I know this is fairly simple: the reason from the beginning is to avoid an extra process step/steps in the production line. That is to produce through h

To prevent BGA (Ball Grid Array) issues related to SMT (Surface Mount Technology) solder resist when fabricating a PCBA (Printed Circuit Board Assembly), you can follow these guidelines: Design considerations: Ensure proper spacing between BGA pads

Assuming you are going to build using a Leaded part on a Lead Free Process - beware of Weak Joints. I saw this at a large Multinational company - They had secondary reflow on a Top Side QFP when the PCB went over the wave. We did pull strength tests

Hi Russ, I have a similar situation. I have been told that this can be caused by the nickel, over which the gold is plated, can result in suspect joints, embrittlement etc. Some joints can even be weak and broken without much force on some of my boa

We�ve also had glass diode difficulties- poor adhesion while all other parts are fine (including tall parts). I�ve received some interesting information from Heraeus: It seems the newer glues create a much stronger bond to SMD�s, except glass diodes.

I appreciate all the feedback. The reason I was asking the question is because we have an internal documnet that states we need to bake for 16 hours after the boards are cleaned. This just seemed to long for what little moisture is really removed. I
