Years ago the FDA banned red dye # 2 because it too was found to cause cancer in lab rats. This was a good thing because the red dye was commonly used in a lot of food products as well as cosmetics. However, one case in point was baffling. It seems

We form a barrier to contain the dye, but regardless it is messy. Actually, we no longer use dye, per say. We use the stuff machinists use for staining metal. Look here for hints: * http://www.ivf.se/Elektronik/dye_penetrant/edefault.htm * http:

Hi Chris, A lot of it has to do with your product, t-shooting devices and techs ability. There are ways to determine BGA are at fault. X-Ray is a good way to check for shorts. Insufficients are harder to find. Some people use a dye. They squirt

Dye penetrant is a liguid that will wick through very small cracks. I used over 10 years ago for checking cracks in glass feedthru's in hermetic packages. You put the dye on one side of the seal and developer (white) on the other side and the red dye

HI, I'm doing a dye penetrant and peel test of non-function BGA solder joints to locate the fracture surface. After applying dye, I found the dye ink just accumulate at the solder mask edge and spread everywhere after I peeled off the package. THis i

Dave, we're about to publish a paper in Advanced Packaging mag. on the use of dye penetrant testing. Educate me on how to enclose the paper on this web site and I'll be glad to let everyone review it.

Hi, I would like to understand more about dye and pry process for BGA assembly. Can anyone provide me more information about reference about this topic.Thanks.

Does anyone have experience in doing dye and pry analysis on PoPs? A customer wants to know whether or not the board level or device-device interconnect is the suspect. What other technique can anyone recommend? BWET

C-SAM is a non-destructive alternative that a lot laboratories and chip manufacturers use. Dye and Pry would work I suppose although I have never done it in practice with PoP but it should be any different for PoP.

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
