It is still a big concern on using No-clean or aqueous cleaning for CSP assembly. I prefer to use no-clean, however, not all components are suitable to use it. Especially those dirty capacitors or connectors which may cause solderability problem. It

| SMT-ers | | I notice that most suppliers provide data that is eye-catching but avoid providing data of significant technical relevance, such as Cp and Cpk. It would perhaps be a wise idea for standards to be formulated in this area. | For

Sorry folks. I'm just a naysayer here. Let's look at this BGA thing...... We've all been successfully processing down to 16 mil FP stuff for years, now--some of us down to 11 mil. Once the printing process was stabilized, paste rheologies were matur
