I'm looking for recommendations on pad and stencil design for products with 0.5 mm pitch BGA's. The latest info that I found in the archives of this forum dated more than a year ago. It didn't give me much confidence that assembly of such components

Hi Colin, Are you using the 1206 package with 4 elements or one of the higher density smaller packages? With the first type you can get them in both Convex or Concave terminations, with most of the solderability problems associated with using the C

Are you saying you have solder balls (as in solder paste balls) at the lead tips (or land tip)? This means your thermal profile is not hot enough. why the sudden cahnge? I will bet the lead frame material was copper and is now alloy 42. sounds like

You might want to take a look at some of the Assembl�on/Yamaha stuff. I believe they have a machine that has a couple of dispense heads and a couple of placement heads, so you can get your solder-paste and component-placement all done in one machine.

I have found that Sn62 solder gives better strength and leach resistance when soldering to gold surfaces. The gold needs to be at least 5 to 10 micro inches thick to prevent nickel oxidation but if over 25 micro inches will cause brittleness. I hav

Hi, That was one of the recommendations made when I had the problem, but I never followed it up. Would the outside corners of the square aperture be on the edge of the pad, so you would be putting down less paste on a smaller aperture, but it's sq
