I'm doing lead-free SMT of BGA with 450 micron ball. I found there are lots of voids under xray, there are around 2-3 voids in every balls. It is around 10% of volume ratio. I would like to ask if anyone know there is any standard of acceptable maxim

Yeah, that's what I'm doing now. I have it now peaking around 235, with about 70 sec. above 220C. (220C is the reflow temp, according to manufacturer. I've always used 217C for Pb free) Wish me luck. Thanks!

Good morning all. I'm trying to find some help on my voiding issue on my lead free BGAs. I am using a Heller 8/2 zone oven, and using Qualitek solder paste. I had listened to a tech representing another solder company, who told me to make the joints

Be careful about taking any generic advice and trying to use it to reduce voiding for your particular paste with your particular boards. I've done a few literature searches over the years on causes/cures for BGA voiding in the SnPb world and found a

I�m working in Solder paste manufacturing industry and my customer has complained the void issue on BGA pad. I�m internally conducting the void test on BGA pad in my Lab. I used OSP furnish board with Sn/Pb and /or lead free component using Lead free

Glenn, i am aware of one unique problem with voc free fluxes. since these fluxes have certain amountb of water content they cause sputtering leading to solder balls & voids problems. Regards Vinesh Gandhi | I require some feed back from any one

This is a post from another forum as a response from Bob Landman to a claim that he had no evidence to be concerned about lead-free in hirel applications (interesting read). See below and am sure many technetters will find this interesting **********

When placing the part to be reflow try applying heat to the board from the secondary side until the primary side has a temperature of about 130 degrees celcius. Following this procedure it should minimize the heat exposure of the part being soldered.

with this design you will have voids, you cannot trap the gas inside of via it has to go somewhere. These vias should be relieved from pad to prevent the scavenging of the paste during reflow. You may try a thicker stencil if you can to allow for t
