Investigating a PCB design which implements a keypad design with fine pitch BGAs and TSOP ICs. My concern is possible stress and vibrations induced by the keypad operation could transfer stress to the solder joints of the fine pitch IC causing the weakening of their solder joints.
Does anyone have experience how to model the stresses on solder joints?
