The HIP (Head-in-Pillow) defect looks like a person resting their head on a pillow, not buried inside it. Recently, some people refer to it as HoP (Head-on-Pillow). Both terms refer to the non-wetting defect in the solder joints of BGA (Ball Grid Array) components. Personally, Workingbear think it looks more like a neck or waist, but I believe calling it the “Ball and Socket” or “Double Balls” Phenomenon seems more appropriate.
