Do not wipe the board at first before putting it in your cleaner. It will leave more paste in your tank, but you won't smear it into every corner of your solder resist. We found that only our stencil cleaner would clean a board properly and leave n

strongly agree dont wipe at all, we make an air operated cleaner which blows the powder off while immersed in solvents to break up the flux. cheap and effective as long as you dont wipe first

Hi, I noticed that the solder joints on my BGAs end up with a lot of wrinkles after reflow. See picture at: http://pstr-r02.ygpweb.aol.com/data/pictures/02/01A/17/DD/E3/9E/n8BhepQLFDs6GMSwaRNxPCTWR5NdpUJZ0300.jpg Does anybody have any ideas what cau

What's important in stencil printing (which differs from screen printing) is providing a consistant volume of paste at each interconnect. The process window varies in proportion to the pitch. More than 60% of all defects are related to solder depos

Just build-up the boards and ship them. Be sure to inform your customer about the problem that you have with their design and ask that the via be filled and plated over to prevent the problem in the production runs.

Thanks a lot guys. The part dims are in mm by the way. So last night i was looking at the .pcb file and saw that the pad size and stencil are both .013" while the ball on the BGA is .018" (sorry for switching from metric). Is this ok or can i have en
