Ball Grid Array (BGA). A surface mount technology leadless package with the connectors to the board placed in an array on the bottom of the package. They are attached to the board with tiny balls of solder placed on each contact. Pin Grid Array (P

We are doing a field study to test the placement accuracy and calculate cpk of some machines in our plant. From previous readings, it is suggested that you buy glass board kits from Accuspec, Topline, etc. Is that the easiest/cheapest way to go abo

I want to get a collective opinion from the forum... I was always under the impression that Humidity at SMT can be a disaster and can cause solder balls... But what about at the Wave/Selective solder? If every board or almost every board has solder

We just placed a 56 pin QFN, 1 per board, on 10 boards and had zero defects. A good paste job, proper placement and a correct oven profile are the keys. If these are set up correctly, on larger runs your defects won't be zero but they should be le

And pin outs of both. Once I saw a SOT-6 replaced with a miniSOT-6 (IIRC) The pin outs of the two parts were different. We did make an adaptor board and it wasn't too bad. We populated a panel of the adaptor boards, depanelized them and put them in t

I�ve been lurking on the forum for a while so I will take a stab at this, mainly because there is no answer I take it that you have a variety of boards being produced at the same time and are in fixtures so the conveyors don�t need to be adjusted, a

I need a little help with RF and Rogers 4003 board material. My background was in digital and now I need to set up a new line to make small RF products (.5" x .5" or smaller). I want to find out about board platings, finishes/maskings and reasonable

There is a practise within the industry of an Inspector inspecting a board, and that same Inspector performing touch-up. My opinion is that the Inspection and Touch-up operations should be separate functions whereby the Inspector is not performing th

Even when you run a board several times, the machine may not make the same travel path every time. This in itself does not create a problem, but the vacuum on the nozzles could be different, dependent on the configuration of components on the heads.
