I would presume you reflow the top of the board first. Use tented vias. As you have worked out, vias have surface tension, which sucks the solder up the hole during reflow of the bottom of the board. Good luck! regards sarason

John, there have been quite a few discussion on Mixed Assemblies in this forum.. do a search.. you will get whole lot of information.. in addition - IF you are using Lead-free reflow profile...make sure the rated temp for Sn-Pb components is not vi

Hi We are using Universal carrier for a 2 sided PCB, where the bottom side goes for hand solder the switches after wave. Our issue is, we are getting micro solder balls all over PCB bottom after wave, whereas we got numerous vias, which also turns

I'm actually currently in the process of discussing with stencil MFG regarding the apertures and reduction to see if perhaps it was not optimal for this fine pitch QFN, as just as you mentioned, we have similar products with similar QFNs that do not

Yes, the RoHS is just EU protectionism. We should have told them in the beginning that we will not participate. And say OK then, don't buy our gear then. But we are pussys now, no balls to stand up. We cave to them EU'ers.

Now you have to find the root cause, before you continue. Is it PCB design or printer setup? Or both contribute?

If I understand correctly you want to pick BGAs from the ball side using some type of vacuum arrangement. You will find that the reliability of this is dependant on the size of the balls and the pitch. The larger the balls and tighter the pitch, th

Hi, i have a confusion to read the dimension of BGA package from the datasheet. I have attached the datasheet below. Is this diameter of the ball 0.30mm or 0.15mm. I'm confused about the values given in the box. Whats meant by M, S, A and B. Please g

Please elaborate, as I have already tried to rule out printer setup. 0 contact of course, ive tried a multitude of pressures, separation speeds, cleaning frequency. Moreover, i use these settings for similar stencils and have absolutely no issue

I have a product with mixed in Pb free and Pb BGAs. I decide to use SnPb paste with Pb free reflow profile to make it work for both types of BGA. Do I have a reliability solder joint issue by using this method? How is your opinion on this case? Can
