A couple of weeks back I produced a video clip for Metcal to show what happens when BGA pop or the edge of the base warps causing shorts to form. Its 2.3meg if there is enough interest in seeing this I will put it up some where for download. Bob Wil

Hi, Has anyone experience BGA caps/plugs popped off after assembly on a double sided board? Only the caps on the primary side popped off and exposing copper. thanks! Michelle

Air Vac DRS25. Hands down the best rework EQ. (my humble opinion, based on my own experience with rework EQ going back 15 years +) Right in your budget. Complete capability for rework. SMD, BGA, POP. Full profiling capability. Massive bottom heati

We saw this condition over 3 years ago. It sometimes is called "champagne bubbles". The intemetalic formation is interrupted due to the micro voiding reducing mechanical strength. I discovered this on lead free test vehicles for a major computer

First, any results of pull or shear tests are unscientific at best. [We pop our BGA from boards with, appropriately enough, a beverage can opener.] Second, we have no have problems with your ENIG specification. Third, as with your customer, we'd e

First question - I am making an assumption that after "de-pop'ing" a BGA prior to socketing the thing to test it, the best known practice is to re-ball the thing. Is this an industry standard? Second question - If it is an industry standard, does a

Hello all. I need you advice and opinion on my problem with BGA drop off from the boards. Initial defect was ICT fail, but due to some accident, the board fell off, and the BGA just pop out. After some search, I end up to conclude it is a black pad

Hi Adamjs! Flux or paste is controlled at a depth of 50-60% per cent of the ball diameter prior to placement of a BGA or to place a PoP component on to a board or other device. For more details visit us at Soldertools.net

We also use machinists dye. I like to pull a vacuum on the board after wicking the dye under the BGA. It seems to help fill fine cracks. I'll stick it in a warm oven if I'm in a hurry for the dye to dry. Then just bend the board to pop off the BGA.

We've had much trouble with flex circuits. As previously mentioned, you must have local fids for the board or the BGA itself (if panelized). Other troubles we experience are drilled holes for pinned connectors. Unless the PCB manufactur has some w
