Selectively/partial increase solder paste volume solutions

Why is it necessary to partially increase the solder paste volume in SMT soldering? To meet the demands of smaller and thinner electronic component designs, stencils are made as thin as possible to precisely control the tiny solder paste printed … Continue reading

Improve BGA Solderability By Partially Increasing Solder Paste Volume

Improving the solderability of BGA (Ball Grid Array) packages is always a big challenge for the SMT (Surface Mount Technology) process. Fine pitch BGAs (with a ball pitch less than 0.8mm) are particularly difficult to solder onto the PCB. Additionally, … Continue reading

Why Burn/In(B/I) still cannot screen out the DDR soldering fail?

We recently encountered a soldering issue with a DDR memory BGA (Ball Grid Array). The problem identified was HIP (Head-In-Pillow) — two balls with non-wetting under the BGA package were affected. To investigate, we sent someone to the field to … Continue reading

The benefit to use shielding clips to instead of shielding frame

For almost of the frequency radio apparatus, the Printed Circuit board must design the shielding frame/can to prevent the EMI (Electromagnetic Disturbance Interference) effect. The regular design will apply one shielding frame to mount on PCB by solder and another … Continue reading
