Hi Phil, we were given a ball park of approx $125K for a non inline version for one of our applications. Can't find the inline quote.

Solder ball attached on solder joint without violation minimum electrical clearance is acceptable. If your process parameter including stencil not changed, suggest you check if solder pasted being pushed out after IC placement, also check if solder j

From the picture, I cannot see clearly solder ball violate electrical clearance or cause a short, maybe it is. What I can see is the solder paste has some misalignment although it doesn't printed in solder mask area, but actual position will reduce

Yes, from the picture, it seems the gap between solder pad is very small, easy to have solder ball/solder bridge.

Hello Pak Agus, Was there perhaps a change in solder paste? There has been confirmed occurrence in your case which happened in the work place I was before; all same parameter, equipment, material, and suddenly solder ball outbreak happened across al

Solder balls are one of the most popular topics here on SMTnet. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for background. We like to wash solder balls from the board in our cleaner.

Do you have clear pictures show IC soldering and the solder ball? DO you have clear picture show the PCB pad?

I found solderballs are around chip components (on one side of middle area), I checked gerber data, solder paste of aperture on the stencil for these chip components have 5% reduction to solder land on PCB, shape of solder land are square, not home p

You may try reduction on stencil aperture on the particular IC location. Reduction on width and extend outer length may help to minimise solder ball issue. However, please look into stencil foil thickness to meet AR.
