You have a very bad situation. It�s tough for the gas, flux material, er whatever to escape when the BGA is sitting on top of it and the blind via is blocking it from the other side. Obviously the vias should have been: * Placed on the edge of the

There is neither �nominal thickness� nor �is there a set maximum� for via masking. We use some of our vias as test pads. So, as you�d expect, we get rabid when we get mask bleed onto these pads. IPC-6012 - Qualification & Performance For Rigid Pri

Here’s what we seem to know: * There’s a problem with voiding in the solder connections of SMT capacitors * A void is an open area caused by air or process fluid that is trapped within a solder connection * Voids are an allowable condition as long as

blow holes and via holes are almost always caused by moisture and in PTH they could be moisture and improper drilled holes. If you are seeing solder balls next to the parts than I would say you have a reflow profile problem. Are you using any kind of

Board had a via hole underneath of the solder pad of the BGA. When it run through reflow oven, it caused a lot of void. How to correct this issue?

Choices are: * Respin the board to move the via so that it is no longer under the pad. * Have the board fabricator plug and plate over the via. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for background.

Is the via hole not supposed to be there, or is this by design? If you are trying to fill the via hole with solder and not have voiding issues, I suggest using a type 4 solder powder mesh size. Reason being, anytime you go beyond Type 4 mesh, to so
