Hi, We had a electric failure on a printed wired board after a few hours of functionning. We determined that the failure was caused by a open circuit in the PCB internal layer near to a via. We performed a microsection but unfortunately, it seemes t

Our Manufacturing policy regarding welds is as follows. 1) Inner layers - depends on Core thickness and line width. Our shop will not do any welding on core thickness less then 5 mils. or line width less then 5 mil. Good AOI practices reduce the a

Using convection type reflow we observed following problem: One ball of a 313-PBGA appears to be dewetting. This happens randomly, i.e. no specific ball location, failure rate is rather low (3-4%), but since there are 12 PBGAs on one board the failu

We find that the raw BGA's pad sheared surface has the SnPb solder at various Z heights whereas the assembled BGAs pad leave a smooth layer of SnPb along the pad. Like to understand the cause for the difference. Who could guess? Solder joint streng

We'd repair a drop board like this. Here's what our old friend Jeff Ferry said is a published article ... When boards lose their edge: when the corner of a circuit board breaks or is damaged, the problem cannot be ignored by Jeff Ferry One of the m

Bruce I�m with yall. Designers and fabricators say �pins�. You say: * BGA pins are 1mm [0.039�] pitch. * BGA pads are 0.4mm [0.0157�] diameter. * BGA pins are 0.6 mm [0.024�] side-to-side. * Board thickness is ~0.4 mm [0.015�] First, as you can
