since there is a bit of humor in this thread, try drilling the pads from the opposite side of the pcb.

Aperture size should vary with the component [pitch]. That size should be the same a the pad size. So, generally pinching is not required. Indium discusses BGA apertures on their site [ http://www.indium.com ]

Rework is typically done by heating the BGA to 170-180C to first scrape off the fillet. Then, heat to above reflow, and lift the BGA. Then, collapse the solder with heat and flux. Then, back down at 170-180C, scrape off the underfill from the boar

It is recommended that the thickness of the stencil of 0.1mm, the steel mesh should be partially nano-coated. It is best not to dry easily, and the particles are not easy to be too large. I have tried ALLPCB for this kind of BGA in the past and they

Hai, In our process we are using the micro bga of size 13X13mm of pitch 0.45mm,after soldering process the bga found collapsed, we absorbed that the PCB land pattern of the BGA was not in array, uneven distribution of pads (area) & most of the pads

We'd expect to see: * Solder starved connections at pads with large trace/pad areas. * Less reliable solder connections at pads that do not match the shape and size of the corresponding pads on the component.

Yes, it's peculiar that the layout of this board is so disorganized * Pads are not round, uniform, or the same size * Exposed traces have different thickness

Hi, what do you mean by collapsed ? Can you describe or send a photo ?

Dear Andrezj, i had attached the photos for ur reference Kindly advice.

Dear davef, Will u pls advice what are all the possible defects caused while soldering ( assembling ) this type of boards.
