Oh I’m using a bga stencil Or what I think is a bga stencil that just lines up. I will look for the Correct stencil and right down the size or just use solder paste thanks
Balls should be 0.3mm. Ball size should indeed be marked on the stencil, you can't use a random stencil, only stencil for 6/7 series mobile chipset will line up.
If you have a decent BGA rework station you can buy pre-balled PCH and solder it lead-free. Will save your time and sanity.
Hi, I just wanted to recap. I wanted to find the exact reason why I wasn’t getting all my signals for lvds. I’m not sure this is correct but on pin 458 of u1800 I have a dead 0.00v short I removed (R2465, R2460, C2465,C2466,C7781,u7800) on this line and on u7800 Pin 1 (PP1V05_S0_PCH_VCCADPLL)
I still have a dead short. I’m guessing it’s directly from PCH. So I’ll go ahead and replace thank you 2informatico and piernov
