Subject: [TN] SJ fracture signature

We see hundreds of cracked solder joints every year, but I can't say that I've ever seen one quite like this.  I have some suspicions, but I'll keep them to myself, as to not prejudice the crowd.
EDS maps are forthcoming.

This is a caught in-the-wild field failure of a 48-pin BGA Reballed to SnPb ENIG on board side Ni barrier on component side
