| Mornin! | | We just had vendor in here pitching a "low-temperature rework system" which was intriguing, but too expensive. He did get me to thinking though, beyond heating ceramic caps before hand-soldering them, it seems like it would be ad

Our company wants to buy a rework station for BGA's. I would like to know what is a good BGA rework station. IR or hot air? Do we need a rework station with optical placement or can BGa's be placed manually during rework. We have seen a demo of an ER

We would like to get feedback from users of SMT REWORK STATION especially for BGA's.Dear users, kindly give us ur feedback on BGA REWORK system on the following. 1.Is HOT air based BGA rework system be better than IR rework system.if so pls clarify.

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,

The current discussion about solder fountains has to do with copper dissolution. Broadly, copper dissolution is the weakening of copper traces where a trace and a barrel plating intersect due a loss of the copper into the solder. Longer contact time

Dear all: For PBGA replacement by a hot air BGA rework station, do I have to follow the same temperature profile as the first original one in the reflow oven? Note that in the rework process I use only Flux paste (no solder paste is used). Hany

| | I'm having a fun time between BGA rework/repair using an SRT 1000 and SPC efforts (much easier) using DEK stencil printing processes and BTU reflow with 6 Fuji lines in between. | | Concerning the BGA stuff, I'm getting about 60% success using

Can anyone pls enlighten me on the rework of BGA. I reworking on a optic BGA with a glass plate on it. Is there any special requirement to take care for the rework. Thank You

One of the difficulties with BGA rework is excessive heating of the internal package (die) temperature. We have several "SRT" hot air rework systems which work well, but with Pb-Free components the challenge becomes even greater. The question I have
