Reballing & prebumping stencils
Setting up a rework workstation
Preheat before rework
When removing or fitting larger components, IR preheating helps bring the assembly evenly up to temperature. This reduces thermal stress and shortens the time local heat acts on the board. Choose a heating output that suits the board size.
Hold the board securely
A suitable board holder keeps the assembly stable and accessible. Check compatibility with the relevant device series:
- Board holders for WUH-1 and WUH-5
- Mounting frames and table mounting for a fixed station
Reballing and prebumping
Re-fitting BGA and QFN components requires matching stencils or masks and solder balls. Select the stencil by component and pitch, for example BGA 45x45 or QFN 6.0 to 10 mm.
ESD protection at the bench
Additional ESD accessories such as PCB magazines, antistatic vacuum cleaners and coatings protect sensitive assemblies from electrostatic discharge during handling and storage.
