I agree. Voids in plating are bad news and baking will not change that.

Which ramp is this? * Ramp to preheat? * Preheat? * Ramp to spike?

Can you post pictures here ? It should be quite straightforward to solve.

We have had good luck with via in pads using solid solder deposition. Please contact me off line or provide a number I can call. Thanks Matt Kehoe m.j.kehoe@att.net

I'm having trouble picturing your setup, but can you put kapton on the columns? Or heat shrink tubing?

Hello, Sometimes you have no choice other than putting uvias in ubga's-pads. I know examples of high-end mass production of products with ubgas having voids. (no problems, but always voids visable in x-ray) I also performed a DOE a while ago to avoid

Tony, What you are seeing can occasionally be caused by gaps in the plating of the blind vias. If they are not "airtight" you can get moisture coming from the laminate that shows up as voids in the solder balls. You might check on the board sup

Sorry I didn't close this one off last year... We had some failure analysis done on these PCB's ( 3D x-ray,microsectioning,SEM) and the results definitively proved that there was some contamination @ the base of the uvia's that had the voiding. It ap

Aluminum shreds were found inside the tooling hole after depaneling. We ruled out contamination because the tooling holes were covered during depaneling. Out of three holes, only 2 holes with positioning columns inside have aluminum shreds residue.

We recently experienced a problem w/voids (up to 65%) in uBGA solder joints. The only joints that have the problem correlated to pads which had blind 0.006" via's in them. The via's only extend down 2 layers, of the 18. 21 BGA's on the PCB, only expe
