HI ALL, can anybody clear me what is via tenting and via pluging?? second one, if i use via in pad for an.5mm bga what care i should taken, what should be the soldermask open in top and innerlayers for via?how it will directly connect to top layer

Depending on the volume of boards you are manufacturing, the most cost effective solution would be to epoxy plug the vias prior to LPI soldermask application. The technique is common practice and most suppliers can provide it will little or no cost a

Has anyone had (successful) experience placing testpoint vias under BGAs? We already have conventional vias, but we're contemplating converting them into testpoints (probably by enlarging the bottom-side copper diameter to .036" and opening the bott

We are using 1mm pitch BGAs with a great quantity of via(s) under the component. Very shortly we will be placing CSPs with .65mm pitch. Our via(s) are solder masked, however we generally have a percentage of them that the masking is thin enough that

Mark: The best routing of test vias for BGAs is to keep them far away from the device. We route test pads for the outer two rows of balls and use vias as test pads for the inner rows of balls. Your bottom-side layout is fine. Yes, on the top-side

First, splitting hairs on parlance. * Conformal Coating. A thin electrically nonconductive protective coating that conforms to the configuration of the covered assembly to provide environmental and mechanical protection. * Solder Mask. Coating mate

I need some information regarding the acceptability/unacceptability of using tented vias with LPI soldermask. Long story on all involved, but basically I have a board that I have had manufactured with no problems which has BGA/uBGA parts, tented via

Sorry. I actually should clarify those slides. Black pad is not associated with tented vias. Also, you can tent vias with soldermask, but this requires the immersion gold process to be completed prior to soldermask. As such, all copper features (
