I assumed the balls were tin/silver 221C or tin/silver/copper 218C liquiduous....but, this is obviously not the case. It looks like you balls are almost pure tin (mp=238C) You are correct. This is exactly the same as using 10/90 high temp balls o

Hi, We have been offered some lead free BGA parts in place of normal lead solder BGA parts in our process, and because we can get them faster it would be a good option. However does anyone know if we can use them as normal. I assume the balls won't

Dude, make sure you're not getting too hot, too quick. If the BGA "dogears" in the oven, or during a rework procedure, it'll either short, or get very strained, depending on which way the part moves, up or down. Also, bake the hell out of them, as if

Robert: Howya doin' bud? You say "BGA Shorting!!!" I say "Too Much Solder!!!" So, earlier comments about aperture design are appropriate, make good points, and I think we both agree that improvements could be made in your stencil design, but I'm

Steve, I'd second Daan's opinion. BGA profile we use gets a peak of 210deg-C to 223deg-C (but that's using our WS paste unique characteristics) with reflow zone holding time of 45-60sec. We had 6 PBGA and 2 ceramic BGA on a 6 layer PCB. typical p

Resources are: * IPC-7525A - Stencil Design Guidelines, 3.5.2 Step-Up Stencil This type stencil is useful when it is desirable to print thicker solder paste in a small portion of the stencil. An example would be a ceramic BGA where it is necessary t

| Here is what I would do faced with your problem. First I would profile a similar board or use an existing profile. From there I would place the dummy device on the surface of a sample board with a thin thermocouple soldered to the board surface und

Two thoughts from me: 1)Are you sure the balls are collapsed? Have you looked at the perimeter from the side with a scope? From your x-ray, it appears you are correct in saying they are collapsed as the balls get smaller in a uniform fashion as you

| | | | Is it possible to place parts that do not have leadframes exposed when looking from the top side of the part such as BGA's using a Fuji IP1 with a SMD1 vision (Binary) system. I realize that the IP1 does not have front lighting but according
