. The possible causes include too short contact time or low soldering temperature. This is evident by poor wetting, a non-smooth surface, and/or a chalky or grainy appearance

. Three surface finishes including OSP, ImAg, and ENIG are considered. The test vehicle consists of 15mm and 6mm Ball Grid Array (BGA) components. The assembled test boards were isothermally aged at 125oC for 12 months, which are then thermally cycled between -40oC to

. The key factors preventing the bubble bursting are: Poor wetting on adjacent solderable surfaces, trapping the void against the surface Dishing (concavity) of upper surface Trapping by rough surface intermetallics, or by the solid content of a solder
