#reballing — Public Fediverse posts

  1. Nothing like a little BGA reballing practice to get in the mood for bed. These LTM4630Ys are 1.27 mm pitch with 0.75 mm balls. Easy peasy. These 36A DC-DC modules are also $80 each new.

  2. Weird case today in my hobby of #RaspberryPi #electronicsrepair - a dead CPU, but all major ICs are fine: DA9090, VL805, FPF1320UCX...

    And there's more: CPU was shorted on a 1V8 rail 🤔.

    So a note to self on reballing and replacing similar ICs: use airflow around 40%, don't put a hot air nozzle on and don't underestimate hot air rotation while heating the stencil and the chip. You'll thank yourself later 😊.

  7. It's funny how these days I find BGA reballing a rather soothing and meditative practice instead of a stress factor it used to seem not so long ago 😊.

  12. Got me some new toys? tools! to play with 😃.

    One is MECHANIC KH-001. It has different kinds of bits included and can be helpful with removing welded chips. Those bits can be swapped quite easily and quickly.
    I also hoped to use it for #reballing with a magnetic #BGA reballing platform, but this tool and its bits are magnetic sadly.

    So I got a QIANLI iHilt 012 that is aluminum and accepts non-magnetic paste planting bits I already have 🙌.

    Because why not? 😊

  13. Impressive #BGA rework to upgrade the RAM on a #Dell #XPS! gregdavill.com/posts/dell-xps1

    I have to admit, before this article I didn't know that BGA #reballing is done by putting actual solder balls through a stencil... That looks much more doable than I thought before 🙃
