BGA defects observed with x-ray inspection fall into catagories. One catagory is the obvious defects; i.e. soledr bridges, missing balls, excessive solder voids. The second catagory is the more subtle "potential" defect. This is where variations in

AOI Machine Daily Verification

We do what here is call a master, this board has a bunch of misalign components, missing components, bad solder joints, crack components, and other defects that we want the AOI to look for, now we compare what the AOI finds with a list of the defects

Solder wetting issues

Rick, Do you check both side of the board after wave? Can you check the orientation of components, missing of components and also the solder joint defects? We are also very interested in this type of machine. Thanks for the information. Carol

Grainy soler

I am seeing quite a bit of grainy solder joints. I am told this can be from being in a liquidus state for too long. Does anybody have any information on this defect?

Outgoing QC Measurements for Board Operations

Electronics Forum | Tue Oct 21 09:28:11 EDT 2003 | bwet

In terms of an outgoing QC measurement does anyone have some guidance? If ppm defect rates are established is it per board or per solder joint? We are a contract manufacturter trying to establish such a measurements without having to cover old ground

IPC Standard for Acceptable and Reject Criteria

Hi Dennis, I would say that you must meet one of the acceptable critera if you have others list, but it depends. Do you have a specific query in relation to a solder joint or other defect?? Simon UK

Basic Soldering question, I don't know where to turn to.

I still don't see the defect, but in general, yes you can use an iron to reflow and cracked or suspect joint. You may want to add a little flux before you apply the iron.
