Dye and pry is frequently used on BGAs to determine if there is a crack at the board level or component level interconnect. C-SAM will show internal delaminations of components, not sure how well it would work with solder joint cracks. You can also

Hi All, One PCBA failed test after went through the Shock Test(Vibration) and suspected to be BGA solder ball crack. We performed dye and pry and found PCB's pad lifted with red mark ink penetrate pad underneath, what does this mean? Can I say the

You can say: The pad was lifted after reflow and prior to the dye and pry failure analysis. When we see lifted pads, we think: * That's a good solder connection * Either it took a lot of force to lift that pad or the fabrication of the board in the

All, What if BGA solder crack do exist after the shock test? Its happen at the corner of the BGA. Base on your experience, what are the potential root causes? Thanks, Sean

Hi All, Besides the above question, I have another one as below: (1) How frequent that we need to perform strain gauge study on ICT, Functional test fixture? Is it a necessary to perform this study each time after ICT, Funtional test fixture preve

In my opinion destructive methods went out with the stone age. At least they did at our company. We specialize in non-destructive defect analysis. We can determine where the failure is i.e. assembly process, fab defect, BGA defect or plating proce
