What is the difference between a smooth finish organic coated bare copper board for fine-pitch components and HASL finish?

We'd expect to see: * Solder starved connections at pads with large trace/pad areas. * Less reliable solder connections at pads that do not match the shape and size of the corresponding pads on the component.

Yes, it's peculiar that the layout of this board is so disorganized * Pads are not round, uniform, or the same size * Exposed traces have different thickness

Josh: You're correct it's tough to describe the layout of the BGA pads and traces. We wouldn't be too excited about seeing this board either. On one hand, for the obvious lack of care taken in doing the layout, this is a junk board and you shouldn

Hai, In our process we are using the micro bga of size 13X13mm of pitch 0.45mm,after soldering process the bga found collapsed, we absorbed that the PCB land pattern of the BGA was not in array, uneven distribution of pads (area) & most of the pads

Via in pad is a designer's dream and an assembler's nightmare. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for previous discussions to get started. VIP, via-in-pad, or whatever tend to promote voiding within the via and certainly partially starved solder conne
