Hello all,

Just a quick note for reference. The MicroBGA® CSP was designed to obviate
concern over the solder joint as a compliant element. In the µBGA® CSP, the
compliant layer in the package absorbs most of the stain of CTE mismatch
between silicon and FR-4 substate. As a result, the solder ball metallurgy
is not a great concern beyond allowing a good joint to be easily and
reliably formed in the assembly process and have sufficent strength to hold
fast the component in use.  

Kind regards,
J. Fjelstad
