John: Seek your answers in the archives. As I recall someone said: � Biggest cause of BGA shorting was out-gassing in-package moisture. � Removing shorts w/o removing the device: - Preheat the board - Lower the nozzle and heat the device - Lift the

A couple of weeks back I produced a video clip for Metcal to show what happens when BGA pop or the edge of the base warps causing shorts to form. Its 2.3meg if there is enough interest in seeing this I will put it up some where for download. Bob Wil

Have you verified the thermal profile recently? I would start there and verify your process has not shifted. It does happen.

Any suggestions as to what can cause a PBGA's corner to warp down during installation process on a rework system? A couple solder balls bridge at the corner. It appears at the pin 1 corner where the metal indicator of a BGA is exposed. I am wonder
