| Does anybody have any reliable alternatives to device bake out for plastic bodied components. We do not use a whole package at time and therefore have to oven bake the balance before we can use them. | I have come accross dry nitrogen storage cham

What is the baking time/temperature standard for the PCBA before BGA rework?

Q1. Can I do this myself on site? A1. Sure. Most companies demoisturate their components in-house. Q2. Can we use our Vitronics Soltec XPM820 Reflow Oven? A2. You can. Most of us would be using an oven like that in our product processing. If you look

Ooooo, much better. Tough to say, because of all the variables [ie, different materials, moisture level, temperature, etc]. Plastic encapsulated devices, especially IC, absorb water from the air, which is violently released during soldering. Typica

Here's a related question: How hot can a PBGA get before popcorn delamination becomes a concern? 100 C? 150C? I realize that the answer will depend upon the conditioning of the part, so let's assume that the part is saturated with moisture. A pra

There is no standard for baking an assembled board prior to BGA rework, nor should there be. The amount of time required to bake a board varies with: * Board material. * Board construction and layers. * Board size. * Components on the board. If som

I would sugest the lowere the baking temperature the better, the main cause of popcorning is the water expansion and this is greatest as the water boils, 100 degrees, better to elongate the time. Matt

Francois/Sleech, thank you very much for your information, by the way where I can get the copy of the paper, what is LTVP stand for and what is the drying requirement expected ie less than 5%? I am also trying to run my evaluation to dry the parts a

Dave highlighted all the elements that must be considered to determine the optimal temperature and duration for a pre-rework PCBA bake process. As far as the component is concerned, it really depends if you care about not damaging the package for r

I agree with Francois. We have just announced a 55 deg. C LTVP drying process that can greatly speed moisture removal. It is also effective for drying components that remain in tape and reel, conductive plastic shipping tubes or trays. Process time
