Hello, I was at a IMAPS conference last year 2016 and several presentations for QFN packages showed x ray images with high void levels of 30 to 50% with the best around 15% with solder paste. During the discussion it was mentioned that the auto in

Our production is putting QFN40 and QFN56 package on board. With 80% opening on terminal, 40% on thermal pad, we found QFN56 100% forming toe fillet, but it does not work out the same to QFN40. We suspect it's because of the weight of component.....

There are many different style LGA packages, but don't sweat it. Stick with the manufacturers recommendations for PWB pad geometry for a start. Voiding can be reduced by careful profiling, and also by pre-tinning the devices. QFN style packages can b

Are your packages mounted on boar using sockets or BGA balls? LGA's are usually no issue and are simple compared to BGA. No issue on missing balls or ball drop issues. However, LGA's need quite a bit of mounting / holding pressures during test and mo

Hello gurus, I am a hardware designer with a small company. We are about to send a new PCB for fabrication. This board uses dozens of tiny QFN, DFN, and similar packages. As a final check I have been going through the datasheets of all these parts t

Dear members, Recently we have found that solder mask thickness variation could lead to solder balling under QFN packages for a high reliability device. Is there any industry proven method for solder mask thickness checking? Any equipment or any me

It sounds like more has to do with plating. you may also check out the voiding issue especially if you have new FAB or the supplier. I had problems with a RF chip in QFN package due to insufficient grounding that voiding caused. This ground is often

Paul, 1. What Kind of IR System you use? 2. With QFN, LLP packages, how do you apply solder paste for rework? Thanks for your answers PP

I'm interested in sharing any information on bumping of LAnd Grid Array (i.e. QFN) packages. due to PCB contraints, it's not possible to stencil paste onto sites for QFNs. That lead to a lot of experimentation with bumping of 6 mm QFN packages.In sum
