Ball / Land Grid Array Sockets
Twist Lock Type
E-tec is now the leading BGA socket manufacturer.
EP patents 0829188, 0897655 US patents 6190181, 6249440 Patented in other countries.
Twist lock sockets are available for any chip size and grid pattern. The SMT socket is simply placed
and reflowed onto the PCB in the same way as the chip and occupies only a small amount of additional
board space. The 1.27mm pitch screw lock socket extends
≈
6,00 mm beyond the outer ball row with
no fixing holes.
We aim to solve your requirements - many different terminals and configurations are available.
Your custom sets our standards!
Please note, we will always request the chip data to ensure we offer a compatible socket.

Important Note:
Please check the ball diameters & heights of your chip prior to
ordering the standard E-tec BGA (BPW, BCW) sockets. Any deviation
has to be communicated to E-tec in order to check compatibility with
the standard socket design and if necessary to obtain a special order
code adapted to your chip dimensions.

Socket Mounting Recommendations and Reflow Profile
Purpose
This document is meant to serve as a guide for mounting E-tec surface mount device (SMD)
sockets to the printed circuit board (PCB). The recommendations described here are guidelines
only, and modifications may be needed for your particular socket, PCB, and process.
Application
The sockets this document applies to are as follows: Clam Shell, Knob Lock, Screw Lock, Twist
Lock, Quick Lock and Lever Lock in SMD style. These sockets utilize the E-tec patented spring-
pin technology. This technology allows the pins to be soldered to the PCB while still providing
compliance to the device under test (DUT) via springs located at the other end of the pin. The
pins themselves do not have solder pre-forms as a BGA would with its solder balls. However, the
sockets are designed to mount to the same PCB footprint and pads as required by the BGA, or
any other IC package the socket was designed for (except if locating pegs are used; see ‘Locating
Pegs’ section of this document). When compared to mounting a BGA, an extra volume of solder
paste is required to mount the sockets to the PCB. To effect this, a properly dimensioned stencil
is required. Once the paste has been applied, a standard reflow process is then used to solder the
socket to the PCB. After the socket is verified to have proper electrical connection to the PCB,
the system is then ready to be used.
Locating Pegs
Although designed to mount to the same footprint as the IC, with just a small amount of
additional keep-out area, E-tec sockets can also be offered with locating pegs. The sockets are
typically mounted with two locating pegs, which require two thru-holes drilled into the PCB.
These pegs help to align the socket on the PCB, and hence align the socket’s pins to the PCB’s
pads, during the soldering process. Furthermore, plating the thru-holes allows the locating pegs
to be soldered to the PCB for better mechanical stability during everyday use and handling of the
socket. If the PCB design permits, E-tec recommends the use of these locating pegs. For fine-
pitch, low pin-count sockets without locating pegs, the mechanical strength of the solder joints
may be insufficient. In these cases, it is recommended to epoxy the socket body to the PCB. 3M
Scotch-Weld 2216 B/A is a suitable epoxy. In any case, the proper volume of solder paste is
required to ensure mechanical and electrical integrity. Recommended stencil dimensions are
given in the next section of this document.

Socket Mounting Recommendations and Reflow Profile
Stencil
Table 1 shows the recommended stencil dimensions. A laser-cut, electro-polished and Ni-plated
stainless steel stencil is recommended to give the most consistent paste release. The apertures
can be made round except for smaller pitches, where square apertures are recommended.
Remember to keep the stencil small enough to fit within the keep-out area of the socket, but yet
have provisions to remove it from the PCB once the paste has been applied.

Solder Paste
E-tec recommends using solder paste without ( or <0.5%) silver (Ag) to reduce the solder’s
wetting ability and prevent the paste from running up the pins, thus maximizing the volume of
solder left on the pads. Brands such as Qualitek (www.qualitek.com) or Alpha Metals
(www.alphametals.com) produce such solder paste on customer request. For Sn/Pb solder paste
we recommend Ecorel 803S offered by Avantec (www.avantec.dehon.com).
Reflow Profile
Both standard Sn-Pb eutectic and Pb-free reflow profiles are shown below.
