Knocking Down the Bone Pile: X-ray Inspection of Ball Grid Array Solder Joints
August 7, 2026 | Nash Bell, Knocking Down the Bone Pile
Ball grid array (BGA) devices are ubiquitous in electronic products primarily due to their advantages, including compact packaging, greater durability than leaded devices, and improved performance from shorter signal paths. BGAs improve electrical performance by reducing inductance and capacitance between the internal silicon die and the PCB, resulting in superior signal integrity and faster operation speeds. BGAs also offer superior thermal performance by dissipating heat more effectively, reducing the risk of overheating.

Not so, however, for our intrepid band of I-Connect007 columnists, who thoughtfully tackle some chunky locus of control topics.
