We are seeing similar issues. We have a board that consistently has failures on a BGA part. After SEM/EDS it was shown that the fractures were occurring between the Ni-P and Ni-Sn intermetallic in the ENIG finish. The element map showed elevated conc

| How do I mechanically/visually inspect BGA devices when they are soldered to a PCB for possible solder, or other, defects as a first step before part removal and further analysis? I have had board failures due to poor soldering--I think? I can pr

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

Thanks, Evtimov. In terms of mechanical drop performance, can we conclude that the higher Ag alloy will have poorer drop shock performance relatively compare to those with lower Ag? The Ag3Sn is a good IMC for welding strength?

I have a project that I am working on and would like some input from anyone that has some knowledge on High Voltage Arcing on PCBs. Problem: I have a PCB that is enclosed in a plastic enclosure that has metal pins and switch that extend to the outs
