Hi, I am observing warpage in the PBGA during reflow in rework machine.Reflow profile is std. (Peak temp is 214 deg C using 63/37 paste). Please advise what should be the gap between the nozzle and the BGA body during reflow process in SRT BGA rework

Are you baking the parts prior to installation? I have found that this will help in some cases. Russ

Hi, Are you printing the paste uniformly ?
Electronics Forum | Thu Jul 31 21:22:57 EDT 2003 | praveen
Yes the paste printing is uniform. I have not tried out paste flux yet.

The profile is enclosed.The PBGA is 37x37 mm.I am keeping the gap about 4-5 mm.The profile meets the solder paste spec.Peak temp is 211 deg C,Above melting point 77 sec. rate of heating

Yes we are baking the boards and the BGA. Using a CDM material pallet to hold the PCB as clamping is a problem without that.

A couple of things you can look into 1. The proper bottom pre-heat of board. If you are applying only direct hot air to BGA without preheating can cause BGA's to warp and collapse un-even. 2. Moisture on you BGA's. If BGA's were not properly packa

If you lay a flat edge on the PBGA, it is visibly warped? How much of a warp? 0.001, 0.010, 0.050 what? What is your pcb temperature just prior to entering the spike process (zone or step or what ever you call it)? Is it between 165 and 175 C?

I have been using a srt-1000 since 98. My guess is your heating up the part too fast. What is your heating rate (deg. C per second)? PBGA's do warp. Your profile should mimic your smt process (assuming you have no warping there). Also, check wit

Hi, Does anyone can teach me how to choice x-ray system & rework station? Help will highly appreciated. Sincerely, Rain
