Many high rel assemblers reball their LF BGA with SnPb balls. In other less demanding environments, SnPb paste with LF BGA produces acceptable reliability.

What kind of destructive testing is anyone doing for LF BGAs?

Thanks Amol, You brought up some good ideas that we'll use. Has anyone ever heard of under filling the BGA (after reflow) with a material that cures, then thermal removing the BGA to check the acual size of the ball to pad?

Have the huge LF BGA reballed to leaded and assemble it with your leaded process. Time savings from using the rework station should pay for the reball if you're doing more than just a few.

Guys, We have an issue with a Board we are running at the moment. We have 3 BGAs on the board 1 Leadfree and 2 are not. We are running a Leaded Process and the LF part is not available Leaded. What do we do? I reckon that all we can do is try an

depends on what you want evaluated! you can thermal cycle the BGAs and the examine the x-sections to determine failure modes at different stages of thermal cycles. you can do a stress test and corelate the # of thermal cycles with the microstructu

Good Morning, One problem of LF BGA's in a leaded process is the temps required to propperly collapse the BGA balls. If the BGA is LF, the alloy of the balls will not reflow until the temp reaches 217-245 C. SN 63/37 reflows at 183 C. If your profil

Hello, recently we changed supplier of the LF BGA, we did corossection and now have doubts... previous BGA specs : pitch 1mm, ball diameter 0.6mm future BGA specs : pitch 1mm, ball diameter 0.4mm on the crossecrion we found that one of the ball seem
