Overprinting until the solder paste start detaching from the joint and start forming solder balls. Based on finish, chemistry and type solder mask this number will be different.I also wouldn't call it "better solderability".

For me it seems that the board is already assembled & soldered. Before assembling the board had been (poorly) washed (misprint perhaps) and the spots are just melted solder paste. Aren't those solder balls in the grooves between the pads and solder

Haris: On your soldering issues, we don't know the make-up of your component. We don't know the type solder balls on the component. We don't know the solder paste you plan to use. Your component and paste supplier are better sources for this type o

Aren't the solder balls a result of the blowholes? you know the solder that came from the blowholes is now the solderballs on the resist! hahaha :-) Russ

Ball SACs are not hard to over come. Most people solder these devices well using a straight ramp with a slight knee right before liquidous. Ramp-soak-and spike would not an ideal way to reflow.....

Our reflow oven builds solder on one specific panel type. It will have solder buildup inside the oven. We then end up with small solder balls on our panels. We think it may be the solder paste, the screen printer is leaving a clean wipe under the pa

During processing, the solder in the vias reflows and forms solder balls. PCBs have solder in random PBGA vias from the board manufacturer.The manufacturer says this is a result of the HASL process and is unavoidable. We use HASL finish, multilayer,

Are there formalized standards for the properties of solder balls? No Get IPC-7095 �Design & Assembly Process Implementation for BGA's�. General comments about array package solder balls are: * Ceramic packages use harder solder, like 90/10. * Pla

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
