QFN assembled on a PCB indicates paramteric fails when tested. When the QFN on PCB is reflowed a second time, it recovers and passes testing. Visual, X-ray inspection revealed no anomalies. Cross-section images of solder joint revealed no anomalies (

I am not sure Ersascope and X-Ray will tell you the results you are looking for. My experience with x-ray has proven that misalignment, voids, and bridging are really the only failures that can confidently be observed. You may have solder in place,

Hi Muhammad thanks for the reply. However, this is my current situation. We are currently using some BGA's with this kind of packaging BGA over BGA. I have verified solderability of the main BGA (below Bga the one w/c will be soldered to PCB) using

1st X-Ray looks pretty good. One instance of what looks like solder migration in the lower left quadrant. 2nd X-Ray shows a number of locations where the solder has migrated into the vias, shown by the small dark circles between the main spheres.

Hello everyone, there is a recent article published, which states: "X-ray component counters do not damage the components being counted, making them ideal for counting sensitive or expensive components". A couple of years ago I heard a story from a c
