Haran: Have you made improvements regarding your BGA shorts? We are facing the same problem and we think it is partly because the non coplanarity of the seating plane of the BGA which causes BGA balls to squeeze on one side of the BGA. Also, we ha

We have a board with an LQFP-176 with 0.5mm pitch. We regularly have to rework these due to unsoldered pins, which is due to pins that are slightly bent upward. We believe that we are receiving them this way, but it may also be due to handling on o

We use axial components together with some SMDs on the same board. Because the components have leads greater than .180 we have to Roto trim them after wave soldering. We are looking into avoiding the roto trimming of the boards, but we need to find

I agree you are too cold for the profile get it up to 230C and possibly allow it to dwell a little longer in preheat as opposed to pushing up the reflow zone only. Sn90/Pb10 melts at 220C so 2C hotter than your profile so you are reliant on it alloyi

Hi Grant, You definitely have a pre-heat problem and not a flux problem. Pallets together with the BNC connectors put a large thermal demand on your pre-heating. 3 zones would be a good investment even with leaded solder due to the high thermal dema

What are the root failures of PCB Blistering / Delamination? Could layers short together through vias or thru-holes?

You can make bare BGA balls short together, depending on how you choose to heat the device. Lookit .. [http://davesmt.50megs.com/pictures/ select bgashortng.avi]

We had alot of problem with melf diode short together after reflow soldering. The clearance is about 0.8mm & we used "v" shaped opening . PLease comment !
