What do others use as far as solder paste type, stencil thickness and aperature size for a .4mm Ball Pitch CSP. Ball diameter is .3mm. Please let me know your thoughts or what you use. Thanks

I don't know your board, but for this specific part: 10mil round aperture on a 3.5mil stencil with type 4 paste wold be ideal

It is recommended that the thickness of the stencil of 0.1mm, the steel mesh should be partially nano-coated. It is best not to dry easily, and the particles are not easy to be too large. I have tried ALLPCB for this kind of BGA in the past and they

Depends on the solder paste. If it has been on the stencil for 24h there is a good chance that the paste is destroyed. You can however check if it has not dried out too much by letting the stencil printer do a few strokes and see if the paste still h

We're not sure of the condition of your solder paste. So, afte 24 hours, if it's: * Unused, in a reclosed container, maybe a week of life depending on the environment * Used, scrap A simple coalescence test can quickly determine the condition of sol
