Hi,

can anybody recommend a good assembly house to solder and inspect a
BGA? We might farm out the entire board asembly, or maybe stuff
everything but the BGA and have that done outside.

This will be a Xilinx XC2S400E in an FG456 package... we're starting
with an easy one.

Thanks,

John

John,

Most houses will do the work, and most houses send them out to houses that have the equipment to do
the job.
There are a few here and there, a few that I had quoted actually would have sent the part out to
Beaver Brook Circuits, Bethel, CT .

Cheers

I used to work at MJS Designs [ http://www.mjsdesigns.com/ ]. Their website
sucks and hasn't been updated for more than a couple of years, but you can
find contacting information there. They have the capacity to assemble all
types of boards. When I worked there, they had a manual BGA
placement/heating machine, an X-Ray machine, and had just purchased another
pick and place machine which supposively was suitable for rapid, high volume
BGA handling. Over 2 years ago, they didn't have any fiber optic cameras
for examination, but they did want that so who knows if they have one by
now.

If you do go with them, please mention my name. I miss my former friendship
with the high up people.

I had a very good experience with Sanmina in Salem NH. They did an
oversized (~8x11") 10-layer (5P5S) "PCI" card for me with about every
package type imaginable, including TO3's, PTH, a Xilinx XCS600E in a
FG680 package, heavy gold plating for test connectors, etc. I thought
the prices were reasonable for the small volumes and rather demanding
specs. They did the whole job (with me standing over the layout
engineer's shoulder ;-), from my schematic to populated, "tested"
(shorts/opens only) boards. I bought all the actives (so I could
design to what I could actually get) and they bought all the passives
to spec.
