Hi Bill,
You're in a swamp at that pitch.Couple of things:
1) Your assembly people need to talk to you. Paste deposition will be a big
issue.
2) You won't be able to use a mask because of the 0.1mm (4mil) web
thickness needed, unless you
3) Use Mask Defined Pads. These can be copper 0.3mm diameter with a 0.2mm
dia opening. That will give you consistent copper area for soldering too.
4) Mask defined pads on a BGA were considered a no-definitely-not strategy,
but some studies we did years ago proved that the tendency for balls to
crack at the mask edge and spread from there went away if the mask was very
thin. We used LPI no greater than 10um thick on the copper and never had a
problem. That was on small modules with even finer pitch that 0.4mm
Go for it - the excitement to design where you've not gone before doesn't
get any less as we get older. Right?
Cheers........
