Hi, I am having problems reworking a lead free PBGA (23mm x 23mm, 1mm pitch). The board is relatively small (5" X 4" X 0.063"). During the removal stage, a thermocouple was placed at the solder ball level (between the board and underneath of compo

I have the same issue but with one customer only. All the other have smaller or more difficult QFPs with really low bridging issues - close to no-one. I think the PCB and PCB design also an issue - other customers are using 32/64/100/144 QFPs and we
