Hi Mark: Running a wire under a BGA is possible, however if you plan to mount the BGA over the wire you would want to make sure that the wire insulation will withstand the heat of the reflow temperature. A more reliable way would be to lay a trace

Your dust collection / humidity / ionic path concern is reasonable. Consider applying your conformal material thick enough to form a good barrier between the device edge and the board, similar to what you do for QFP. [Admittedly the QFP is not a pre

Kyung Sam, | | Justin is correct, there is definately either a board design problem or the PCB maker issue. Obviously there are many mixed technology boards built in the world so I would lean towards a design issue as the root cause. Should you or

Kurt: Lots of choices, not many of them good, yano. 1 So LPI has taken over the market pretty nearly 100%, but it won't "tent" reliably, because it is not very viscous when applied and drops into the hole. So then, tenting/plugging with LPI is bad

| Hello: | BACKGROUD: SMT components soldered on the top-side of boards that also require wave soldering have the potential to reflow during wave soldering. Reflowing these components during wave soldering is not good. It can cause cold joints, op

Greg: It depends on the specifics of the flux you are using. You didn�t say. Generally, using a: � "No-clean flux" should create no flux entrapment problems for most applications. � RMA with 25% or more solids as a "no-clean" should create no flu

Hi I was looking for the development board of a MCU i was asked to evaluate, but upon checking out the gerbers i found something weird this pcb is a 4 layer stack 1 smd connections 2 gnd 3 vcc 4 thd connections question 1) in this case, i'd place o

That should not happen. There are some threads concerning BGA and wavesoldering you could look for. It�s said that you should protect the vias in the BGA-area by soldermask or at least with tented vias to prevent rereflow of BGAs solderjoints what co
