Cleaning
Objective remove soils that will impact product reliability of a
PCB based on the end use environment and/or provide for
surface that will accept a subsequent coating.

10. BGA Rework-the process
Inspection- Inspection Criteria
•May involve visual assessment only
(Table 1-2 )
•Process validation can be used in lieu of XRay/Visual inspection provided objective
evidence is available
•Outside rows through visual inspection when
practical
•Alignment in both X and Y w/corner markers
on PCB (if present)

RoHS Issues
•Lower wettability
•Higher reflow temperatures
•Specialty rheology formulations for dipping

Need to be able to get underneath
Need to get mechanical energy to “break the dam”
Need cleaning agent to be able to break down the soil dam
Other method is hand cleaning-soft bruch plus isoporpyl or other favored cleaning solution
Typically and by default using the IPC A 610 inspection criteria
Magnification as found in table XX in 610 at the beginning of the book
May augment with 7095 or customer specific criteria
Evidence of wetting, solder joint shape, solder joint texture, any contaminants, solder joints anomalies like shorts, opens or cold solder
Discuss lite source, lens and camera and SW as key elements of the system
3.6 minute video
Review quickly the imnpsection criteria for BGAs
Must be bale to see those utisde rows for inspection
Absence of solder ball is a defect
Incoming inspection balls may have voids-do NOT want there to be a dramatic reduction in X-sectional area
Not an a reliability concern that they aret here BUT changes in void size or frequency are a process indicator
Entrapped fluxes are the cause of voids
Original solder balls can be a cause of voids
Entrapped air fluxes during reflow process-need time to escape
Lower heat txfr and lower current carrying capacity
May need to Xsection along with 2D to determine location and size of the void
Void Types per 7095
Type A within the ball as received
“”B at the ball/package interface upon receipt
“”C within the ball after reflow
“”D At ball/package interface post reflow
“”E at ball/board interface post reflow
Control voids VIA stencil design, flux type and application, solder paste formulation, reflow profile, reflow atmosphere
