Rich, Saw your earlier e-mail, and what you're working with isn't bleeding edge at all. As Dave Price pointed out, almost any fabricator still in the game in North America can handle your design. I mentioned Tech as they have a good reputation and are in your area. For footprint resources, see : http://www.pcblibraries.com/ They have a IPC-7351 Viewer you can download for free ( IPC-7351 is the new footprint standard). There is also a document that describes the footprint naming convention on the site you should grab.

Very informative, particularly the "Manufacturing Capabilities". Will recommend to my client. Been in and out of the PCB Design Business for the last two years (a story in itself). Do you have any links to good (free) BGA Footprint Recommendations?

I did a few .5mm and .65mm designs with them a few years back , both thru and HDI structures. http://www.techcircuits.com/index1a.php Dave Schaefer dave.schaefer@xxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: icu-pcb-forum-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:icu-pcb-forum-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Richard E Marion Sent: Tuesday, September 13, 2005 5:27 PM To: icu-pcb-forum@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [PCB_FORUM] .8-MM BGA Geometry Dear Forum, My Client is utilizing a 0.8-MM SDRAM Package. The smallest BGA Pitch I have dealt with so far is 1.0-MM. The Fabrication/Assembly Vendors are yet to be determined. The PCB "target" construction is 0.062-Inch 14-Layer, three sets of dual embedded stripline. No Blind/Buried Vias (all Thru Via). Questions: 1. Any recommendations for local (NH-MA) Fabrication/Assembly Vendors capable of working with this BGA Geometry? 2. BGA SMT Pad Diameter? 3. BGA SMT Soldermask Diameter? 4. Thru Via Drill? 5. Thru Via Pad Diameter? 6. Alternatively, is Via-In-Pad an option? 7. Any chance of ATE Testing 0.8-MM Pitch?
