Removing Warpage from PCBAs
Removing Warpage from PCBAs
We have populated boards with components on both sides that are warped. Components are varied height. What methods can we use to flatten them? Phil Zarrow and Jim Hall, The Assembly Brothers, discuss their recommendations.

Cleaning Reballed BGA Components
Cleaning Reballed BGA Components
We currently clean reballed BGAs using an ultrasonic cleaner followed by baking to remove moisture. Is this an acceptable practice? Jim Hall and Phil Zarrow, The Assembly Brothers, discuss the best practices given this scenario.

Solder Paste Volume for BGA Rework
Solder Paste Volume for BGA Rework
Rework can never be as controlled or consistent as original assembly, should we use more paste during BGA rework to compensate for irregularities or flatness?
