I am looking for any information or testing data done on the amount of weight that can be held by a bga package based on size of the solder sphere and number of spheres. I am reflowing components with a bga package on the opposite side and looking f

I can't seem to find an article about the limiting mass of a SMT component on the solderside of a double-sided reflowed PCB. I'm pretty sure that Phil Zarrow did an article on this subject. It went something like the mass/land surface area?

Much has been said on this subject. Try a search of the archives for the terms "Phil Zarrow" and "surface tension". You'll likely find what you need.

We don't expect properly soldered first-side DPAKs to fall from the board during second-side reflow. The ratio of weight to solder surface area for a DPAK is 1.32 gm per in^2, which is well within the limit of 44 gm per in^2. [Search the fine SMTnet

| *Reply to: ericr@nj.tanon.com | | Without going into a lengthy explaination {at this time}, has anyone experimented, tested, evaluate, and/or 'perfected' an SMT double-side reflow process. Presently I'm using a Kester R593 OA (water soluble) Sn63/

Hi Steve We don�t double reflow this part. We wouldn�t consider it without a fixture or some other support. You know that sound, the almost involuntary sound that patrons in a restaurant make when a waiter drops a glass or a tray? It�s kind of an

To predict whether or not a first pass part is going to come off during the second pass you need to calculate the ratio of weight/soldered surface area. According to a couple of different sources that I've dug up, maximum is around 44 grams/in.^2. I

Hi Barry, One consideration that you may want to consider is the lead to hole ratio. The higher the ratio, the less solder is required to fill in the gaps and give you a fillet. Heat is a concern. You will need to ensure components will take the he

Bob Willis and Phil Zarrow have had a running commentary on the ability of reflowed solder to hold components on the bottom side during reflow. You can find references to their component weight to pad area rations in the fine SMTnet Archives. The
