If you want to build cool things these days, you’ve probably had to master surface mount electronics. However, for many people, ball grid array (BGA) is still intimidating. Have a look at [VoltLog’s] ...
Simple and inexpensive semiconductor devices in earlier generations of electronic systems were easily discarded or recycled when they were damaged either before or during the printed circuit board ...
The ball grid array (BGA) is a surface-mount chip package that is used to mount embedded devices (e.g. microprocessors) by melting balls of solder between the face of the device and the circuit board.
