Well I would think that the heat slug would work to a point. Obviously made to dissipate heat from the component. That said it wouldn't hurt to cover that also with aluminum foil. Your not wrapping a present, your simply tenting the component. IR wil

SUMMIT 750. My yield is 75%-98%. And they all depend on the pad design, stencil, paste, operator, thermal profile, etc. I have 98% yield on some of our products with good pad design. Process is easy to control. Dreamy

I agree completly. When the techs in the factory bring boards to me for the PCB operators to replace BGAs on I ask lots of questions before releasing it to PCB dept. Many times its a guess on the techs part because they are frusterated with troublesh

2 suggestions - Get a good scope - at least a 4X, but more like a 6X, 10X is best. You have a choice on used equipment for a substantial savings. A Leica Stereo 4 zoom is it. You can look for BGA scopes that have a 90` angle for looking at the balls

Hello All, I've got a little problem here. I have a 456 ball PBGA 1mm pitch, .5mm balls, with .6mm pads on the board. given that the pad size is way to big (S/B .45mm or so)I need any and all advice on how to rework these things without shorting o

Is this problem really related to the size of the BGA OR the size/thickness of the PCB? Would I be correct in assuming that your pre-heater is small in size? Usually a board warps like this when the ramp is to great at the localized area. the imme

A few good points have been made here: The profile could be ramping too fast. The profile could be gettting too hot. The profile may need to have more "soak" time before reflow to allow the board temperatue to equalize and the board to "relax" and st

My suggest is using Ersa IR55A or IR650A. http://www.ersa.de/en/ If you looking for your quality, you need this system. I had try it many time, is better then hot air. and you can set the profile as you like, even Flat Peak on the Lead Free Rework.

Good point, I am preheating for 90 sec to a temp of 170 C. (PCBA) then reflowing for 40 sec. to bring it to 215 C. I will try a softer hammer. This has been working on other assemblies with the same package however. Do you know if a water soluble
