With regards to the rework, size and mass of the PCBs is important, in addition to the size of the components that are to be reworked. You might be in the game with $6K (APE Chipmaster Hot Air machine with Preheater or similar setup) if you have sma

I had identical issue with CBGA's. I also found stress fractures at the sphere/substrate interconnect. The supplier had data to support their acceptability but we persisted and they reworked them,

We have a potential new customer who has special PCB requirements. I do not know a lot of details at this point, but have several questions. One of their assemblies has within it , a MID, Solid foil layer, completely isolating one side of the PCB f

Dave, I confess I was a tad too general and a bit too extreme describing the way ALL solder joints look on palladium coated leads. I should been more specific about the "pillow-effect". I've seen it regularly with palladium coated leads on small SOT

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,

hello guys and gals: we know that BGA placement or rework are such a pain in *** oh well! but i was wonder if you can help me to figure: how many BGA do you place on board annualy? (just a bulk park idea) do you rework BGA in house? do you think

This has been a problem with new components coming directly from vacuum sealed desiccant packed moisture barrier bags with moisture level cards. We have also baked all boards prior to the BGA rework to ensure no moisture issues were addressed.

We have a customer that has been trying to place the Xilinx part number XCV2000E-6FG1156I which is an 1156 ball plastic BGA. When we do the X-ray and inspection we find that the package is warping up on all four corners of the package, Like so: Top
