It's also easier to assemble, with less likelihood of shorting between the
conductors (given you use the correct land pattern and spacing of vias etc.)

Subject: [DC] BGA vs. QFP
Date: Thu, 13 Apr 2006 14:54:39 -0700

Fellow Designers / Engineers:

I have always believed this blanket statement:

"A BGA will always provide superior performance to a QFP due to the
powers / grounds being closer to the die, shorter wire bonding, and
the absence of lead inductance"

Is this a true statement or are there other considerations that I am
missing?

TIA.
