Electronic devices continue to shrink in size with advancement in chip fabrication technology. Packaging technology has responded with improved formats to present these chips for assembly to PCBs.

If you want to build cool things these days, you’ve probably had to master surface mount electronics. However, for many people, ball grid array (BGA) is still intimidating. Have a look at [VoltLog’s] ...

Simple and inexpensive semiconductor devices in earlier generations of electronic systems were easily discarded or recycled when they were damaged either before or during the printed circuit board ...

The unparalleled pin density and low lead inductance of ball grid arrays (BGA) are essential in today’s high pin count, high frequency integrated circuits. However, that same pin density and unique ...
