We are currently looking at purchasing some BGA rework equipment. Could someone give us the pro's and cons of IR heating (top/bottom)vs. hot air convection ? All other tips are also welcome. Thanks

| Hello all, | | Been doing some comparisons on joints made using the soldering iron versus reflowed solder paste (on a QFP package). The difference is quite significant: the joints made by the soldering iron are inconsistent and in many cases not
