We've used both 1A33 urethane and 1B31 acrylic coating on our SMT assemblies with great success for many many years. This is with components of all shapes and sizes including a 9 ball micro-BGA. We apply the coating in every way imaginable and we hav

We doubt that Humiseal 1A33 is causing opens in your assemblies. We'd guess the opens occur earlier in the process, but are not hard failures. So, you pass your tests. When applied, the conformal coat flows into the gap in the ball crack and insulate

Hi We have a board at the moment thats passing ICT and passing functional test but its failing test after conformal coating has anyone had any experinces of this? or any idea what may be causing this?

we suggest as below : the first : check the soldering(solder ball and pad) by X-ray ; second: to do dye analyse (note:pls confrm is there have crack )

I have used 1A33 for many years with excellent results on through-hole pcbs in equipment subjected to very hot and very cold environments. Because 1A33 continues to harden with time, I assumed it would simply not be usable on smt boards, cracking t

Hi It's me again. Our products need to pass a chamber test 45c/36hrs after the PCBA completed batch of functional tests and assemble in to case. We found 1 unit was functioning for 24hours in the chamber, but hang after that. We tried to re-boot the

Hi Milan, One cause for such BGA failures could either be a laminate warp (bow or twist) formed during your Reflow or Wave soldering process, or perhaps a warp seen on the BGA component package itself prior to processing on SMT line. IPC guidelines f

If there was a ball in cup defect on the original assembly then it could behave like you explained.

Hi, Is there any PTH Assembly after reflow, we found cracked joints on some BGAs which was caused by operators ing Oupin connectors which were a tight fit. This caused the PCB to flex hence cracking joints. One way of checking for this during test
