Hi John,

 It could work, but you'd have to make sure Pb is evenly distributed inside the BGAs.



Regards,



Vladimir

Subject: [TN] Lead Free BGA'S



Our assembly house recently assembled some boards with Lead Free BGA's for us

and when I asked them if they used a lead free process they responded with.



We use leaded solder (Sn63Pb37) with a hybrid oven profile to accommodate the lead-free BGA. I hope this answers your question. Please let me know if you have any more questions."

Is this a common process, is this a reliable process



Any input is appreciated



Thank You

John Foster
