"Guest" is right, actually. CSP's are essentially BGA's, but typically the pitch and ball diameters are much smaller and in some cases, the pads of the CSP's can not be screen printed. If that's the case, you'd have to have flux-dip capabilities on

It takes time for the moisture to penetrate into the body. I think the 5 years of ambient would be more the culprit than washing the boards. Especially since you are baking them after wash. Get a few of the ICs and put them loose on a board and put

I agree with Jay. The paste will reflow first before the balls. The main reason is the flux content and the dimension of the spheres.

Charlie: People cure glue using their paste reflow profile all the time. And most of them are happy. Personally, I�m with Dean and Travis. It�s possible to as you suggest, it�s appealing not to mess with your oven profile, but it just doesn�t s

Dear Robert, On PBGA assembly, BGA sphere shrinkage number depends to the following factors, a. BGA Sphere size (before reflow) b. Solder mask opening diameter As far as I know, no formular has been established yet. Most of my friends just collect

We have been running a Heller 1707EXL for 8 years and added a Heller 1707MKIII about 1 years ago. We have not had any problems with either one of them. We do both lead and lead-free assemblies along with BGA/LGA components. If speed/volume is not

Want to update this question a little, I know it appears few years ago, but I hope there is some updates... We have to assembly few samples of motherboards with this kind of finish (customer mistake during pcb order). Normally we can use leaded sold
