IPC 610 says acceptable Class 1 (Class 2, 3 indicator) if they are entrapped/encpsulated balls within 0.13mm of lands or pads. or exceed 0.13mm in diameter. Defect Class 1,2,3: Solder ball violates min electrical clearance. Solder balls not entrap

Hi all, currently, we are seeing BGA problem like solder ball misalign, void, solder short (all under BGA, tested with 5DX), after reflow. We examine the solder ball (raw material of BGA), and see that the ball surface is not smooth, will that affe

kenscj: Responding to your points of interest: * On the smoothness of BGA solder balls causing solder ball misalign, void, solder short after reflow: We expect the solder balls to be smooth and have no sharp irregularities. We can't recall attribut

Hi dave, Thanks for the comment. I have another issue. The board already pass Test and Burn-In processes, but after 2 months the BGA contact is found open (no contact on certain balls). How can that happen? Is it during build, the solder ball alrea

Dear Sirs, very sorry being late reply after a year. Thank you very much for your advices, you are absolutely correct after reduce grounding pad size. No more solder ball issue. Thank you very much. highly appreciate all of your supports. Best re

Morning all, just took a look at a new board we just got in and the there are different pad areas under the same BGA. What happened is engineering uses wider trace sizes for some pads and those overlap when more than one go to the same pad. This caus

It is strange that you're having issues while using the same process parameters (including stencil) that worked successfully before. It doesn't guarantee that it's not one of those parameters changing in a manner that's not apparent, but it does sugg

I have identified a Board design issue and having trouble convincing others of my findings. I have a BGA (Sn63 balls, +1500 IO, 0.6mm ball, 1mm pitch, with heat spreader plate)that has a high incidence of solder shorting on the corners. The board i
