We have placed these parts. I have not had problems with them but when I designed the stencil we reduced the app for the large thermal by 20% to reduce the chance of problems like your having. If the balls are close (.040-.050" or

Haran, This problem can also be caused if the BGA package is POPCORNING. Popcorning causes the BGA package to expand below the die, seen this happen so often to customers that try to install BGA's themselves without the proper handling of BGA's. Tha

emmanuel : i agree with Dave , it's easy to have blind hole on the bottom side , of course in this case you'll lose some thermal efficiency ;the second solution is to put on the bottom side between the board and your heatsink a soft thermal interfac

Hi, It's on the pads. They look ok, but when you check the lead comes away from the solder. Regards, Grant Blackmagic Design

Yes, your pallet will absorb / steal heat. It sounds like you are doing a good job in understanding the issues. Yes, the pallet could be the problem. Is this a new run that you are starting? Or has everything been OK, but recently you've begun to

Steve, This is a good, well repeated, not identified by IPC yet issue. I, and some others in industry, for years have proven and recommended smaller pads for various devices. I, and some others in industry, use 0402 pads for 0603 device types. IPC o
