Can someone please help with the aperture size on a Micro BGA stencil. I want to have an electroformed stencil made with 0.1mm (4mil) thickness. The PCB pad for the micro BGA has a 0.406mm (16mil) diameter. What size should I make the apertures for t

want to know the tolerance the paste height in the solder paste printing. for example if stencil thickness is 7 mil, what will the acceptance level of paste height ( upper and lower) kindly share if any guidelines or formula for the same

Hi KP, I�m wondering why you send those boards outhouse for the SMD part with a stencil. How do you know it fits their printer. We give the stencil data 1:1 to the subcon so that they can order the stencil to their needs with reduction and thicknes

First of all THANKS for thr reply. I totally agree with u that paste dried,stencil aperture clogged like probs comes during the production but we hv a visual inspection stage (with 5X illuminated lamp)after printing process and before inserting the

We r using QFPs of 0.5mm pitch and r not getting any soldering prob at the end.But some new customer insists upon the thickness check of the solder paste after printing. At present we don't hv thickness checking system.We r controlling the amount of

Boy, does this sound familiar. I agree with Dave, especially his point about board side taping. The kapton tape has a thickness of approximately 2mils. You artificially increase your paste thickness with this method. It also can be a cause for br

Emilio: Several factors you need to take into account and your process parameters will depend on: Solder Alloy, Is there any Fine Pitch?; BGA?; Smaller chip size?. Tipically you should go for controls in: Solder Temperature and viscosity; blade and s

IPC a 610 has this info. An 0402 however mat require more solder than what IPC states (basically evidence of wetted fillet for class2). more paste = more flux = better wetting. Why don't you tell us what pad sizes and layout you have and stencil t
