This is interesting... is anyone addressing the ENIG sometimes used on the
BGA component prior to ball attachment?

Subject: Re: [TN] ENIG solder joint embrittlement
Eddie,
As David already has pointed out, it is soldering to a nickel
surface that is the issue, the gold layer is too thin to cause gold
embrittlement. Below are two quotations from a draft of IPC-7095A, "Design
and Assembly Process Implementation for BGAs", supporting that solder joint
embrittlement is indeed an issue when ENIG is used.
"Recent preliminary analysis indicates that the BGA brittle solder
joint fracture happens under a high level of both applied strain and strain
rate even if hyperactive corrosion (i.e. "black pad") does not take place".
"Based on industry experience over the past several years, it
appears that BGAs and nickel surface coatings may not be an ideal
combination. If nickel surface coatings are used with BGAs it is recommended
that the BGA surface area not exceed 25 mm2."

Ämne: [TN] ENIG solder joint embrittlement
Does anybody have data or literature which shows that solder joint
embrittlement is not an issue when ENIG is used? I have a customer
that needs this supporting data before he can allow us to use ENIG.
Is
this embrittlement issue related only to a certain thickness of
gold?
I'd appreciate any feedback on this topic.
thanks,
