Kurt: Lots of choices, not many of them good, yano. 1 So LPI has taken over the market pretty nearly 100%, but it won't "tent" reliably, because it is not very viscous when applied and drops into the hole. So then, tenting/plugging with LPI is bad

| Could someone shares their experience on the causes of 'Open' in the BGA after reflow. | | Are you having a problem with the joint openning up after reflow. Like it was soldered after the reflow process, but at final test is not? I had this pr

I'd like to ask a question. Have you determined where all those solder balls are coming from? I even see them on top of U40 and U15. This seems like a dumb question to me considering the size of the part (and having seen pictures of only one boa

I'm no expert but I think you will find the majority of discussions around BGA & good printing results focus on the PCB design and things like tented vias and pad definition. e.g https://macrofab.com/blog/bga-pad-creation-smd-nsmd/ After that, work

Armin: How ya doin� bud? CK gives good advice, but I'd like to take a bit of a different angle. Q1. For 0.7 mm (0.027in) diameter hole for vias, what�s the minimum annular ring for this hole diameter? Depends on what you�re trying to do. For in

I work for a board house and our proceedure for this process is the following, We cover the via pads leaving the hole open and then apply the surface finish and then go back and Cover the Via with a second operation. By doing this you do not entrap

Depending on the how you plug the via, the void level can significantly affected. If you have via plugged from the bottom side; i.e. opposite side of the component, you will see alot of void due to entrapped air in the via hole. I found work best wh

A couple of things that have helped me with solder ball issues at wave in the past: 1. Flux. Insure good flux coverage on the bottom of the board. 2. Preheat. Insure that the board is sufficiently preheated for the wave operation. Since you're

Jax - absolutely right - the archives are a valuable tool and deserve to be used more than they seem to be. Caumel - Are your blobs on the solder side or the component side? Are your vias tented on the component side? What size are your vias? Is th
