John, Universal has a smaller footprint HSP chipshooter, I believe the 4795S and the 4796R that takeup a lot less space than the full sized chipshooters do. I have a 4795S, it's just as reliable as our full sized 4795's & 96's. As far as BGA's I pr

Manish, I've seen similar phenomenon when processing CSPs on our cards. In our case, we were placing the components over the opening to in-pad blind vias. Due to poor drilling and plating processes by our board suppliers, volatiles were outgassing

I need advice for locating 23 Gull wing LED's (all in a straight line) in the x,y, and z axis for a SMT PCB. It is a Hewlett Packard LED (P/N HMLA-QH00-01). The application uses a CCD to detect the position of a ball which floats in a resevior for

| | Hi, | | We are having problem with yield loss due to electrical fail. Further investigation shows that the failure is due to solder bridging under BGA. Has been there any study or experience on how this could occur and what we can do to prevent

| We had some failures on an IC package that the manufacturer has put down to moisture inside the package, leading to popcorning. | This seems a bit odd, the package is a PLCC 84 which is quite thick. I have only seen this problem on thin packages. |

I've never seen this before. Today, I got this tombstoning on Tantalum Capacitors (Okay, I saw that before) Here's the part that seems weird to me: -They didn't tombstone onto a termination - they went onto their sides! That's right, both terminati
