The same issue i faced 2 yrs before , i sugest 1. Use stencil of 4 mils ( Take care of Aspect Ratio and Area Ratio ). 2. Use Solder Paste of Type 4.5 and Viscosity in between 1100 to 1300. ( Try Solder Paste of Cookson or Alpha metals : OM338 T45-L

The results from an experiment comparing 27 different combinations of pad dimensions concluded that the pad design with 15 mil pad length, 12 mil pad width, and 9 mil pad separation produced the best assembly yields. A 5 mil thick laser cut stencil

I am a doer myself but with the turn around and cost on EFORM stencils I prefer to be right and starting with math is always the best way. We have played with reducing apertures even stencil thickness as low as 4 mil. On the side that this component

If you are looking to rework (after all of the previous suggestions are taken and tried....you have some solid ones in there). When a device like this is placed and is hard to get to we use the 7721 bumping process using a controlled heat source (no

I believe that Rain-X contains silicone and Nano-ProTek solution does not. I did speak with a field service guy for Nano-Protek and he told me the special coating test pen that they offer is just a sharpie with their logo on it. Thats how I test to

That�s a 672 BALL BGA, bud!!! It�s a BIG Mutha!!! [I know. I know. For some reason suppliers call balls "pins".] Let�s focus on: * Clarifying the units on your PCB and aluminum plate thickness measurements. * Describing your use of the aluminum pl

That is all we have ever used ("Zelflex" by LPKF). They work great. We have 300+ stencils stored in print drawers, probably 3'x3'x5' area. The stencils are also cheaper by more than 1/2 from our supplier. The only stencils we have in permanent fra

OK, OK. 672 ball BGA. The pcbs are PC Card bus size and are .015 thick. There are 3 on a panel with about 1/2" between and rails. The aluminum plates are about 3" by 7". There are 3 cutouts which allow for the parts from either side to protrude du

It seems that it will work with 5 mil stencil. To be safe use 4 mil if the rest of the design allows it. 10x20mil apertures for both rows. If you have bigger footprint in the corners, make bigger apertures there. For the ground plane, I would use ver
