Package Types We Work On

Precision PCB Services works on multiple package types for ceramic reballing. Ceramic reballing refers to the process of removing solder balls, often defective, from a circuit and replacing them with new ones. At Precision PCB Services, we specialize in common types of ceramic reballing for ball grid array (BGA) surfaces.

If you need top-quality ceramic reballing services for BGA component reworks, we can work with the following package types:

CCGA

We work on ceramic column grid array (CCGA) packages. These packages are constructed with non-collapsible solder columns and are typically used for mount soldering. CCGA packages are used on print circuit boards (PCBs) and feature large ceramic substrates. Precision PCB has the capability to perform cutting-edge ceramic reballing services for CCGA packages when you need reworking or modification services.

CBGA

Precision PCB Services can perform rework services for ceramic ball grid array (CBGA) packages as well. The CBGA package is a ceramic package that contains solder balls used for external electric connection — an alternative to traditional leads. A single CBGA can have anywhere from nine to over 300 solder balls, which are set at the bottom of the package body. Precision PCB Services offers high-quality reballing services for CBGA packages of any size.

CPGA

We also offer ceramic pin grid array (CPGA) package services for reballing and rework projects. CPGAs feature a through-hole ceramic package with leads or pins positioned in a square array at the package's bottom. CPGA packages can also feature solder-sealed metal lids or frit-sealed ceramic lids. At Precision PCB Services, we provide high-tech, efficient CPGA package reballing services.

Reballing Ceramic Process

The ceramic reballing process involves multiple carefully conducted steps. These steps include:

  1. Preparing the BGA surfaces by clearing their components and cleaning the surface
  2. Securing the units with a specially designed mold
  3. Introducing and securing the stencils
  4. Shaking the solder balls into place on the surface
  5. Performing reflow soldering and cleaning any flux left over
  6. Performing a final inspection and verification
