Bga question??

Bga question?? | 12 June, 2005

When examining a Bga using an Ersascope, I found that all the joints where good. However I found that the first few solder balls from left to right ( vice versa ) seem higher than the middle solder balls. It appears that the body of the part is flexing upwards on these solder balls. Can anyone explain this to me ?

Thanks in advance.

BGAs warp during reflow. When balls solidify they lock the device into this warped state. It's not a big deal until the warp gets severe enough that you have opens and/or shorts.

The placing stroke(mounting press) of the BGA may be too high.Try to reduce the value at the component data.
