Can you jumper the via to the pad?

Hi mates, was going thru the IPC-A-610C Standards, and noted BGA voids stands somewhere between 10%-25% voids permissible in the solder "ball" bump, after reflow process. Was wondering, hypothetical case study, is there any specification for voids

| This is not strictly a surface mount query but any input welcome | I am thinking of using surface mount solder thief pads for a through hole connector. The connector is two rows of 0.1" pitch pins and on waving there is often a bridge on the last t

Yes we do place "big and heavy" SMT DC/DC:s on most of our board's. Please tell us what brand it is or at least what the package look like?!? For instance we place a different numbers of "heavy" DC/DC converters (40x20mm & 45x25mm) that has the pick-

Hi ScottE "Is this ball sitting on a via?" I am not sure is I answered your question correct, the ball is sit on the pad.

I have a few prototype circuit boards with BGA footprints where some (but not all) of the vias have been placed too close to the pads. During reflow, some of the solder from the balls flowed into the holes. Only one of the pads under the BGA is not

Kim: You could be correct. We had a batch of BGA that had a weird bridging pattern. Could not figure it out. So, we put the whole batch straight out of the 'box' bug-up on a hot plate and video recorded the balls as we took them through a thermal cy

I attached a RX picture. A lot of voids and micro balls arround the flux residue. What do you think, relow temperature reflow or OSP poor weeting.? I appreciate your comments. Thanks,
