| | | | We are just starting to manufacture a PCB with a .039" fine-line PBGA. We are currently seeing voids, mainly in the center, that are as much as 45%. We also intermittently see the corner balls of the PBGA smaller than the center balls. We are

I have to agree with Michael's comments. We've been evaluating systems for a month or so. There's a pretty wide range depending on what you're looking for. I'd say the first thing needed is to define your expectations. Are you looking for solder in

| | | In a month or so, we will be getting an in-line x-ray inspection machine. It will require that we solder our most comlicated side (normally top) first. This is opposite to our process now where we solder our passive (bottom) side first. We

We have few failures similar to the discussion in this thread, on a 50 Mil pitch, 30 Mil mill Ball PBGA. Would like to understand the mechanism of the BGA reflow process bit more. Appreciate your response to the following. 1.We sheared few solder ba

| We are experiencing 'lifting' on one or more sides of a QFP. Poor lead co-planarity has been ruled out by independent tests. Please tell me which of the two remaining failure modes is the most probrable? | | 1. Expansion of gases in vias underneat
