Universal now has Big-Board options and retrofits for GSM's. 32" kits and 25" kits. If you call them, they will come. Brian

Mike's comments are well taken. Your technique works fine with BGA, but uBGA are less forgiving. Again, let's take about: * Specifics of the problem. * Amount and method of applying flux. * What's holding the uBGA in-place before the solder ball an

In regards to your last question, - problem is failures and most think it is due to too much flux - we apply flux with a brush - amount applied depends on the operator applying it - the flux is very thick and will hold the part in place before reflo

I have had success by applying the paste flux with my finger, using a finger cot and spreading it on the PCB. This seems to put it on more consistently than using a brush.

Does anyone know the cause(s) of solder flowing through a via to the other side of board during reflow causing solder bumps on opposite side? Is this mainly a design issue or could it be process related? Any help is appreciated.

Assuming you're seeing this during wave solder, the via acts like a heat pipe conducting 450�F [or whatever] air to your solder balls. Check the fine SMTnet Archives for similar threads and perspective on the direction to take.

I'm not seeing this during the wave solder process, rather the REFLOW (convection) process. The board was design with the vias located "in" the land area.

I'm afraid I only have data that has been published previously. What I do have was created when working for other companies and can not be shared, sorry. Perhaps someone else may be able to help. Regards Jay

Don't hold me to it but... Class 1-process indicator, varify value (cap, resistor) Class2,3-failure (rework required) This is what we used at my former job when i took over QA responsibility.

Let's assume that SMT or MEMS or COB etc, is a new things and about to be introduced to the line, nobody knows about this new process and I was asked to select the critical proceses and parameter, how and where should I start? Thanks and best rega
