Hi As I know PBGA reballing is not recommended or better not allowed by all the most important Standards. Exceptionally Cstly Ceramic BGA or Ceramic ColumnGA where you can perform electrical test before reballing (90/10 ball/column-balls made) some

Well, I can't speak for them falling off later on, as that's not when I see them, and they are passing their wire pull tests after bonding. What I am seeing is electrical opens during testing, and these opens coincide with the Au/Al bonded points. Th

Any decent flux would volatise off with the heat of the wave unless absorbed into the solder mask. Test this by trying to clean in alcohol or common solvent aerosol, if it does not clean then it is probably Mineral Salts from solder mask fillers. Ano

I have to build test fixtures for RF Power transistors. These components generate alot of heat so the PCB is soldered to a baseplate. The problem I am having is that I am getting too much solder flowing thru the via's and flooding the topside of th

I got a report from Yageo yesterday with microsections and and and..... result: Cracks I did a test run on boards after ICT, but before coating. They are all ok. Seems the cracking happens somewhere after the ICT. But at that stage all assembly is a

What process steps have been completed before the cross-section? What type of devices have solder cracks? Are the cracks found after just normal processing or after some type of validation testing? It is very unlikely to be a heating/cooling issue

These residues are extremely water miscible BUT you will probably need the extraction of heated IPA/Water to get the porous resist to release the residue quicker than it would do releasing it naturally in the field. Why dont you try to soak the circu

We tried choking down the water flow to the coolers yesterday just below above the point of where we wouldn't detect flow in the system. This raised the temperature in both coolers for this test. This morning when cleaning the buildup, this had mad

We use NC flux exclusively for SMT and wave soldering. And it is a fairly old formula from Multicore, though we are currently qualifying a new formula. The automated soldering does not appear to be a problem. It is only the hand soldering that causes
