You didn�t tell us about your solder, wave temperature profile, or the distribution of the problem. So, let�s assume the solder is near eutectic and the problem is wide spread. Wolfgang makes good points. So, let's talk a different tact. When we

Dear All, I'm encountering a problem on mounting Intel E7501 and P64H2 FC-BGA chips. After the SMT process, these two BGAs were defected. Both had power-to-ground short circuits on the die package itself, and also the die resin had cracking tracks

I have a product with mixed in Pb free and Pb BGAs. I decide to use SnPb paste with Pb free reflow profile to make it work for both types of BGA. Do I have a reliability solder joint issue by using this method? How is your opinion on this case? Can

Defining the thickness of solder between the lead and the pad, J-001 states "Properly wetted fillet shall be evident." J-001 is available from http://www.ipc.org. Factors that affect this are: * Amount and composition of solder * Amount and compo

1) For solder short, pls check the paste height. Too much vol will cause short. For 15 mils use 5 mils thickness stencil if possible. Check profile preheat time to prevent hot slumpof the paste. 2) type 4 powder will be better for 15 mils pit

We haven't run a profile yet....probably because we're a-feared to. We can't do topside preheating here to any degree because we use an aluminum plate for aligning hundreds of top side through-hole components (pots, switches, buttons, LEDs) that te

I feel your pain - we do the same. My favorite: no extra panels or boards for profile and due to the fact that we're behind on an order, a first article of a fairly complicated board goes from 10 to an order for 500. Myself and production takes th

There is no standard for a strain gage measurement of allowable deflection of a board or a fixture. It's possible that your fixture is causing the BGA cracking that you see. What protion of the BGA is cracking? If it is the solder connection, sear

thanks dave .. I have one more query on the same CCGA. What are the chances of the CCGA lead getting bent or tilt during reflow soldering process. Concern : to achieve the minimum peak temperature of 208 deg C at the connecting leads. On bod

I don't get it. The liquidus of 80Pb/20Sn is like 280*C. Your reflow temperature got nowhere near that value. Where did that material go? Is it folded back under the component? Disappeared? Was it ever there? Ask someone while analysis tools to hel
