We care currently running into problems during our plug via process: At the moment we plug prior to soldermask (LPISM) using epoxy resin - plugging takes place from the component side - however we are seeing solderballs after solder level.This is cau

The problem with super glue is that is has a cyanide base that turns into a toxic gas and evaporates when heated. See IPC-7095. Via's should be fully plugged with solder mask at the fab house. If your PCB designers are not up to speed on IPC requi

As you are aware the common method to rework BGA is : 1. Remove BGA with hot air reflow machine ( SRT as current practice) 2. Clean the BGA pad using solder iron and solder wick. 3. Replace BGA with SRT rework machine. The problem we have with

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,

Thanks Everyone, the information was very useful. We use 7095 as a bible. A-610 6.5.3 doesn't allow for any solder balls not entrapped/attached etc. so we will look again at plugging/tenting both ends of the via. We ran into the problem of the mask

use something other than HASL. "The rest of the world seems to be processing with no problems..." [Hello!!! Earth to Carol. This is a test.] Things you are considering could be more trouble than they�re worth. "1) Reduce via hole size" [If you re

Mantis: Kenny reflows paste on [wave solders] all via, not just the test via, to plug the via and provide for a pressure seal between the board and the test fixture. Beyond that, since solder is softer than copper [and fills the hole better], solde

You have two options 1. Get some real solder mask form board supplier (not touchup pens) and repaint the trace and heat cure. 2. Fill the via with solder before reflowing new part, this usually works but sometimes it doesn't. We use Method 1 Russ
