Just wondering if anyone knows this off the top of there head. I might be able to figure out the math based on surface tension (this is 63/37 so the data is out there) but I REALLY do not want to put that kind of effort into this. :/ Editing to clar

IPC 610 says acceptable Class 1 (Class 2, 3 indicator) if they are entrapped/encpsulated balls within 0.13mm of lands or pads. or exceed 0.13mm in diameter. Defect Class 1,2,3: Solder ball violates min electrical clearance. Solder balls not entrap

In the past, I would normally tell out highly talented inspectors to leave the balls there. The were trapped in the flux residue and were hard to remove. Never caused a problem. But then there was an incident where someone had the bright idea to u

From what I was told, gold flash normally refers to 10 microinches of gold.

What is the state of the art in electroplated gold flash a a surface finish; thickness and tolerance limits?

Flash gold is just thin electrolytic gold plating over electroless nickel or electrolytic nickel. Flash gold plating ... * Less than 3 microinch thick will be porous and take solder poorly * Greater than 10 microinch thick will cause brittle solder c

The answer, as stated above, is 3 microinch's however, it is equaly important, if not more important, to understand that the only function of the gold is to protect the surfaces beneath it. Only enough gold to cover the nickel beneath it should be u

Hi, Is the IPC-A-610 applicable to CSP assemblies? Especially regarding the solder ball to solder ball distance versus the minimum electrical clearance for assembly(0.13mm/IPC-A-610). With a 0.4mm pitch component and 260 microns diameters balls, thi

Hi! cold someone advise me about the minimum gap allowable in between 0404 parts. The minimum distance is because of the behavior on reflow, the re-work difficulty or anything else. Thanks
