Are the solder balls what we would call ' mid chip ' solder balls where a single or sometimes a few larger solder balls are positioned somewhere along the side of the chip or are they the solder paste powder particles spread around the pads ?

My company is just getting into the flip chip packaging arena. We are putting in a prototype/small volume wire bond PBGA line. We have some questions with regard to choosing solder balls and cleaning of flux. 1) Is there a formula for the shrink

Sara Rice: How did you determine the balls were entrapped?

So you passed a BARE board thru the oven and got solder balls?

Hello, Can anyone comment on the implications of small sodler balls under a leadless device such as LLP with a centre thermal land. I believe that we did not make a good reduction and the paste squeezed out of the centre land and balled up under the

Hello there, Most probably, since the solder balls are entrapped, it is a process indicator, but refer to IPC 610-6.5.3.1 on Excess solder / solder balls / splashes - it really depends on what class you are manufacturing, and the minimum electrical c

We have 8 layer HASL PCB. We saw molten solder blobs / balls on op side of assembled PCB. (to check, if this was a bare board problem), We passed bare board as received thru, SMT reflow oven and saw solder balls on top side of board. What could be th

davef: I am a colleague of Sara at Foresite and we came to the conclusion that the solder balls were entrapped based on the minimal amount of information from the original question and the fact that the x-ray showed the balls and it wasn't mentioned

I am having issues with Solder balls on Ceramic devices, all LEAD FREE SOLDER. The cermaics are only 7x5mm in size. The balls appear around the 0402 capacitors. I have a varying humidity from 15 to 40 %rh which is slightly low but I cannot control.
