We do not assemble with these connectors any longer, we replaced them with a connector from somebody er other, like Teka [one of the pioneers of solder-flux bearing lead technology and a supporter to SMTnet], Samtec, Advanced Interconnections, Mill-M

Some of this was copped from Fred. There are numerous package types that now fall under the rubric of land grid array [LGA]. Land grid devices [ie, Bumped Chip Carrier� [BCC], LGA, Quad Flat-pack No-lead [QFN], MicroLeadFrame�, etc] are essentially

Yes, shameless. You could have come out and said that APE's equipment is the best thing since sliced bread but . . . you had to get all scientific with us. We already get bombarded by subliminal messages in commercials now, tech forums. In all ser

Is it this your first experience of C-CGA RWK ? In order to approach a RWK of this kind of pakage it requires a capable process and clear operating procedure. In the past, the company who I use to work for, we rwkd plenty of this kind of CCGA. Earl

Gyver: Lemme take a wack [if you�ll excuse the expression, given direction of the later discussion] at your questions. Q1. Will the baking of BGA or PCB cause more oxidation before the SMT process? A1. It certainly will not cause less oxidation,

John: I�m here. On "what do ya think about that one!..."??? Mutha, that sounds rat�s rump [as Dennis Miller says] ugly. On some boards, we paste a cuppla chips on the break-away panels and then torque the chips from the board after cure. We use the

Continuing, I�ve optioned about the uselessness of shear testing of solder connections on this forum previously. So, the points that you make about the elusiveness of developing a standard for measuring solder connection strength is well taken. I�l

AF: Unfortunately, there is no "acceptable number of cycles" either in air-to-air and one liquid-liquid thermocycling, nor interconnect stress testing. There can be a "minimum threshold" that would assure no failures as the result of the assembly p

| We are all faced with increasing interconnect density in all we do. This means smaller everything, especially components and that which they are mounted upon but, hopefully, without smaller minds and thoughts. It all demands more process control an
