i think you need to use a PCB central support. do you know that part ? it specializes in preventing PCB board from bowing during wave soldering.

If this board is waved soldered than you may want to look at the wave causing the BGA to reflow a 2nd time when it goes over the wave. The board bows down and the the joint liquidfies and then hardens before the board fully goes back to flat which c

is this a single brd or multi up array? What is the thickness? where were the brds made, state/country? I had an issues with a brd which was fabed in mexico during the humid months there was mosture trapped in the brds which caused many strang things

Could be board support. Breakaway boards are a little more flimzy than boards without. A bowed board will cause miss placements - again can be overcome with proper supports (depending on the machine) I would bet that the boards with breakaways h

Ed: It might be possible, never tried tho, but if an engineer wandered in, talking about it ... Printing: Makes me pretty nervous, because punched boards are not planar, don�t stay planar, and are inconsistently not planar. If I could work-out th

When we see warp and twist, we usually jump the fabricator for: * MLB construction (not homogeneous or unbalanced - too resin rich or poor) * Supplier process capabilities (lamination cycles) * Material selection (usually cheap and dirty), etc. War

Its a single board, one up. 4 layer, pretty simple, no large copper pours. We get these consigned from our customer so I cant work that end of it but wanted to make sure to cover everything I can. The oven it runs in was just checked out by the facto

A board support must be used to prevent bowing of the board during insertion of the sockets. It should have a flat surface with holes or a channel large enough to receive the sockets during installation. [Tyco AUGAT HOLTITE Socket Application Note 11

Check for warp during reflow or placement, if your board is bowing you are not going to make a good solder connection. If your board is warping during reflow you may need to make a currier to support the board during reflow if using the edge to tran

Has anyone had any expereince with FR4 boards under the std 0.5% warpage for Bow & twist with CSP & uBGA devices on them that have caused failures. Are there any revised percentages for boards loaded with these devices that anyone knows of, istead of
