Underfilling BGA is an uncommon practice. We'd start looking to find a consultant recommended by our: * Dispenser company * Underfill supplier

Tks BT Can't be many places tougher than automotive, 'cept maybe oil field, down pipe. We use Dexter Hysol flow underfills for both 1 thou and 3 thou gaps, but they wouldn't come close to filling under a BGA. Most BGA are sitting about 16+ thou fr
