gregp: Our PTH process has not changed in many years. Our products are fairly simple as far as electronics goes and everything gets potted anyways. ~90% of everything we build is single sided TH with ~ 100 solder joints per board. Each board is ~

BGA Rework affected by cold weather?

Electronics Forum | Thu Dec 04 10:59:02 EST 2014 | rrosera

HI, I work for a company in New England and recently had a unusually large number of boards fail after replacing a BGA on them. We use a AirVac DRS25 to remove and replace the BGA witch uses local forced hot air. We usually have at least a 90% s
