Yeah, just build up a little corral for the chip with maybe 5 mils or so slop on each side. (surface tension will bring chip into alignment when the solder balls melt) liberally flux and apply hot air gun to back of card, no solder paste needed. I wouldn't _ship_ anything done this way, but its OK for protos. Also do the BGA(s) first so you can sight underneath the chip to check for shorts... > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jon Elson" <el...@pico-systems.com> > To: "Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC)" <emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net> > Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2010 7:49 PM > Subject: Re: [Emc-users] Beagle Board > > >> Yanjun Luo wrote: >>> Here is my project web site, http://code.google.com/p/openomap/ >>> >> WOW!
