The reject rate of yours could be a number of reasons. 1. Which component types are rejected? 2. From a particular nozzle? 3. If the rejected part will be dropped on the reject belt or reject bin; it suggests that there is a problem with the componen

Hi Matt, Sounds like the HASL may be to thin on some pads and you're getting copper migration. If this is the case, and the solder paste is printing, I would asume you would see some solder balls under the BGA at X-Ray or incosistancies in ball size

Can't find "WS601" on the Alpha site. What is that stuff? So, with nothing to go on, I'll just guess ... Yer probably cold welding the solder particles together. The nozzle size (inside diameter) determines the dot size. * With glue, small dot si

Also I should mention, I've ditched the formulas for getting the "optimal" solder amount after being bit by them once. Now I just design a PCB with 4-10 spots for the connector then order a stencil with a range of aperture sizes. Figure out what give

I have never experienced voids when using the flux only for application. Search the archives for void causes. As far as "more paste is better" I think that could be a true statement if we are talking about adapting to co-planarity type issues. My

Yes a 6 mil solder deposite will reduce to approx 50% of it's original size. Does this happen on only 1 BGA? Is the BGA that its happening on have smaller balls than the others, what I'm getting to is, are you sure you are depositing the proper amo

Paramjeet Singh Gill So, you underfil before cleaning. Interesting. * What is it about your underfill that prevents the OA flux from attacking the FC solder balls? * Who is the underfill fabricator and product? Getting back to your solder balling

Depending on the assembly, I have applied balls on LGA's and reflowed them on using the rework hot air machine. Some places don't have the money to spend on mini micro stencils of all types, and thus spend the money on various sizes of solder balls
