GB/T 19247.6-2024 Printed board assemblies—Part 6:Evaluation criteria for voids in soldered joints of BGA and LGA and measurement method
Basic Information
Scope
This document specifies the requirements for the evaluation of solder joint voids in printed circuit board assemblies during their thermal cycling lifetime, and describes the method of using X-ray observation to determine voids. This document is applicable to the evaluation and testing of voids in solder joints of ball grid array (BGA) and land grid array (LGA) devices soldered on printed circuit boards, but not to the evaluation and testing of voids in the packages of BGA devices before assembly. This document is also applicable to the evaluation and testing of voids in solder joints formed by melting and re-solidification, such as flip-chip and multi-chip assemblies, except for BGA devices and LGA devices. It is not applicable to the evaluation and testing of voids in solder joints between BGA devices and printed circuit boards that have underfill material, or in solder joints within device packages. This document is applicable to large voids in solder joints ranging from 10 μm to several hundred micrometers, but not to smaller voids with diameters less than 10 μm (such as planar micro-voids).
