Our present lab went "South." We need a lab that can do temperature/humidity conditioing, convection oven baking, C-Mode Scanning Acoustical Microscopic package inspection and "No-Pb" reflow simulation. We are evaluating a low temperature package dry

MSL 3) By SAM (Scanning Acoustic Microscope) before to remove them from PCB, you could identify if de-laminated or not and the degree of delamination. Best Regards...GS

Hello, I would like to ask for cooments/advices about the inspection of small solder deposits inspection (aprox 4 mills). We tried with X ray and Scanning acoustic microscope but it looks like due to the small size, we could not be sure to get all t

Hi Grant, just my opinion, I think the concern could be related to the extra temperature the BGAs have been exposed during the Lead Free Reflow Temperature. So you need to check ( data sheet) what is the max temperature and how long the Pb/BGA can w

It won't work. An acoustic signal can't punch through a BGA. The signals reflect at every interface. So, it works for flip chip, but there are too many interfaces in CSP and BGA. Equipment, Inspection, Acoustic microscope * MicroPhotonics * Sonos

Yes. It's called a surface acoustic microscope. Rent time at your local university or college.

hi dave Is there another tool besides SAM (Scanning Acoustic Microscopy)? Regards, Ray

Yes, moisture entrapment causes solder shorts 80% of the time. Cracks occur bottom side of the BGA. Use an acoustic microscope to find the cracks. So, what makes you think your BGA are blowing-off steam? I posted a vid on SMTnet that showed the b

As you probably know, x-ray inspection has problems positivly identifying cracks or delamination. This task is more suited to scanning laser acoustical microscopy but the cost is very high. It has been our experience that cracks are associated with t
