stencil apertures for BGA | 11 April, 2008

I have a question concerning stencil apertures for BGA. In my case we have 0,8mm pitch BGA - plastic casing. I have found an information that paste reduction diameter should be 2mils. Is that correct ?

In my case aspect ratio = r/2t = 0,76 > 0,66 Is it ok ? Is it overprinted

r - radius of stencil aperture - 9mils ~ 230um t - stencil thickness - 150um

Other data :

diameter of soldermas - 26mils Diameter of pad - 18mils Diameter of stencil apertre - 18mils Pitch - 0,8mm ~ 31mils

What stencil aperture for BGA do you recommend ?

Hi Andrzej,

We are using for BGA (0.8 pitch) square apertures size 0.4 mm (rounded corners r = t) and stencil thickness t=5 mils. So area ration-> w/4t=0.8

Hello Jan,

I understand that you have the same pad dimensions for BGA balls ?

In regards to my calculations looks like we print 20% more paste then in your solution.

What is yield in your case ? Did you develope this stencil apertures based on your own needs and experience or did you obtain this stencil design according to common rules for 0,8mm pitch?

Hello,

That is working for us.

If you have a look at the Indium or Cookson recommendation they are very similar.

Just make few diffrent patterns of the BGA and find out what is workin for you.

Regards

Jan
