One of my favorite bga jigs. For lifting the chip out I use a pair of tweezers where I bend them out really far in the middle and then bring the tips back in a little. Its annoying if you grab them for normal stuff since they do not close but its extremely useful for picking up bigger chips.

I made my own jig, using ample flux and a stencil just slightly bigger than spec and hot air blower with hand, I could do this under the scope without hassle. you do need practice as said here , most importantly again emphasized here is clean tools, high quality flux and blower makes all the difference. On smaller pin chips i even practiced placing balls manually after desoldering old ones, the key is to get dead boards and practice. two three times and voila you will be a professional

Hi Tony, worth mentioning that there is special flux available for BGA work it's designed to hold the balls in place after heating with hot air, a good one is Mechanic AD Series & CMOV 223 / 559 Soldering Flux Paste Kit NC-559 . there are others too. Bob
@tony3592 ай бұрын
Thanks - it's difficult to navigate through all the available fluxes and all their copycats. The "mechanic" is all over the internet, I'm not sure which is genuine and which is not. Same for Amtech of course. Most "high-viscosity" or "tacky" fluxes are suitable for the task. You want something that doesn't move the balls once they're in place. But I am not aware of a flux which does not liquefy once it's heated up. The trick - in my limited experience - is to apply a minimum amount just to keep the balls in place but not enough so that the balls float on it when it's heated up. Then apply again at the end once the balls are somehow bonded to the pads for a perfect bonding. Thanks for watching!

Awesome video, Tony! I learned a lot from this. I haven't ventured into the scary world of BGA work yet, but I feel like I'm going to need to learn these skills at some point! Your instructions were very clear and the end-result looked beautiful. Is your hot air station and pre-heating plate all that's needed to BGA chips reattached to the board/card reliably as well? My cheap handheld station is probably not going to cut it for this type of work.
@tony359 Жыл бұрын
I’m glad it helps someone understanding the process. I’ve been tinkering with BGA for many years now and yes, it’s a scary thing 😂 As long as your hot air handle can deliver uniform temps, that might be ok. For large nozzles you need that plus higher airflow. My previous station was a toy and I’ve only burnt things with that. The pre-heating plate is a must. That’s a fact. Smaller ICs are simpler to work on of course. Check out my GTX480 repair video where I do reball and attach an IC (with a working result) for the first time. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gojHiKBsr693rqM Thanks for watching and for the nice comment!

What is the advantage of the balls over using solder paste?
@tony3594 ай бұрын
That's a good question. I don't think you could use solder paste on a large IC like the one shown here - I think it would be impossible to hold the stencil steady while flowing the paste. But for tiny ICs like mobile ones, that's probably the only solution. I suppose that for "in between ICs" both methods would work and it's down to personal preferences. That said, I never tried reballing an IC with solder paste. Thanks for watching!

The one in the video is not a "direct heat" stencil. If you use hot air on it, it will permanently damage.

BGA ICs are rated for those temperatures for a limited amount of time - like 30 seconds or so.

The stencil I use here is not a direct heat one. It must be removed and the balls heated then. I did try with a super-cheap direct heat one and I had the same problem. That said, it's not the balls getting stuck - solder should not bond with the stencil. It's the flux. Try warming it up a bit before removing the stencil. But honestly I think the "non direct heat" ones are better - though they're a bit more tricky to use as you see in the video! Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much, Brexit Tory and Labour parties for Scottish Independence. We could not have done this without you. Kind regards, the Republic of Scotland, better together with Northern Ireland as Republics inside the EU, protecting us from English/British Brexit nationalists. We know how to take back control of our sovereignty. Hell Yeah.

@@evilborg I can give that a go for sure, thanks. One problem I might have is that I believe all my stencils are now NOT the ‘direct heat’ type so probably unsuitable for the solder paste?

@@evilborg I’m not comfortable in warming a chip stuck in a vice… it will try to expand! I’m not sure my jig is suitable for that. Others will be for sure. I’ve got some solder paste anyways to test - not on this jig though

I have watched your videos with some interest during for some time, and I´ve also subscribed. I watched this particular video perhaps two weaks ago. It´s obviously ment to be a joke of some missguided sort, and ment to be funny. Well, it´s not! Please cut this silliness out, and resume making regular videos as before, please.
