Ioan,
Unfortunately a majority of designers are in their own little world, not all but more than 50%.

I can still remember what I consider the classic cartoon about this. I saw it during my first month here at RIM in 2001.  Two guys in a room, one has the other held at the back of the head with one hand and is pushing his face down not a circuit pack and is exclaiming, "Bad designer, bad designer!".

PS If you are a GOOD designer (in terms of being assembler friendly) please ignore this e-mail!

Subject: Re: [TN] LGAs in a military environment?

What am I going to do with this one then? I have to assemble 3 of them on a fairly large 14 layers RoHS board...

Please also note the "wise" layout suggested on page 19. Does anybody think about us assemblers?

Regards,

Ioan Tempea, ing.

Objet : Re: [TN] LGAs in a military environment?

Bev's assessment is right on. 
The particular component that Graham's designer wishes to use is a real
"problem child" from a long term reliability standpoint, not only
because of the fact that it is an LGA with very large delta CTE between
component and substrate, but also from the standpoint of having a lot of
connections underneath, which reduces cleanability even more. 
And no-clean fluxes typically don't completely activate underneath a
package of this type, even if it were able to be used.
