That�s a 672 BALL BGA, bud!!! It�s a BIG Mutha!!! [I know. I know. For some reason suppliers call balls "pins".] Let�s focus on: * Clarifying the units on your PCB and aluminum plate thickness measurements. * Describing your use of the aluminum pl

We are attaching 0.50mm diameter SAC 305 solder balls onto 0.38 diameter Au plated pins placed at a 0.80mm pitch (pins are pressed into a plastic insulator). A tacky flux is then stenciled onto the pins using a stencil with.a 0.38mm diameter aperture

Yeah, it would be kind of expensive to replace all of your stencils but it's the only real answer. Be sure that all your new and replacement stencils have a home base or home plate shape for the passives. This reduces the paste volume near the cent

Can you get me a recommendation regarding a Micro BGA soldering. It is apparent there is a problem and I want to insure success by following recommended practices. Is there a particular solder mask configuration recommended, as far as stencil thick

IPC-7525 "Stencil Design Guidelines" is a good reference document to have. Here are notes from a Tessera, (a major mBGA mfg.), study- "Application Note Solder Stencil Requirement for mBGA" The stencil aperture is to be square, equal in size to the l

I agree that homplate is a good design, but also this could be caused by the stencil thickness and aperture size, if you are at 7-9 mils thick stencil and a 1:1 ratio on aperture size then 2 things i know of will happen, one a squishing out of past o

Hi there Steven ! Please allow me to share some of my problem we're facing here with you. Here are a few points that I suggest you should check on your current process:- (1)PCB - Component land partern design ? It is per IPC spec ? - Mask
