Tools of the trade / Attaching BGAs, CSPs and other Area Array Devices for Proto
The methods I have seen the most common for protos are:
1. Outsource it!
2. Print solder paste with a stencil and hand place
3. Use a stay-in-place stencil whihc allows the user to "fit it in to" the apertures and handplace -probably only good to 0.8mm pitch with some type of magnification for placement of the stencil).
