| We have a need to add a trace to a large quantity of bare PB's. The trace goes from a 25 mil QFP pad to a via. The rework must be done before we process the board. The rework cannot interfere with the solder paste screening process. | | Does a

Increasing the metals loading may help. But may cause issues elsewhere. Unsure of your exact process....but may work. Is anyone dispensing solder paste onto BGA pads...how is voiding in comparison???

Bryan: Comments are: * You're correct, solder paste formualtion is a major driver to voiding in BGA balls. * Voids are primarily process indicators. There is experimental evidence that voids retard crack propagation locally around the void on a temp

Washing no-clean solder residue out from under BGA's might present a challenge.

We'd like to see pads on the board that closely resemble those on the interposer.

Both are acceptable methods. - Printing on the board may give your operators a better ability to catch insufficient solder due to poor release; however if done right, printing directly onto the BGA ball is much more efficient and eliminates any compo

Hi Everyone. I would like your input in regards to lead free solder paste lead free. Which one is the most reliable solder for BGA's and BTC's (QFN). I have used different type of solder and on some of them i get big voids on BTC's and other one i g

HI I used both of solder leveling HASL and ENIG, HASL I can recommended for biger pitch is cheaper solder leveling than ENIG but problem with that solder leveling is during the reflow process HASL isn't flat and during reflow process component move

We'd be incluned to dip the BGA ball in tacky flux, place the BGA on the PTH interposer, reflow that suka, and get on with things. [Take the people involved out to lunch with the money you save on not buying a stencil.] On damaging the glop top, we'
