MGX B-52 Legacy 4

Description

The MGX B-52 Legacy 4 test board is excellent for evaluating the design margin represented on assemblies populated with bottom terminated components. The QFN designs incorporate large thermal lugs, which can underfill the bottom termination with flux residue.

Uses

Surface Mount Technology

Solder Paste Characterization

Activity of Flux Residue

No-Clean Soldering

Cleaning under Bottom Terminated Components

Components

MGX QFN 48-1 Chip (Back View)

MGX QFN 48-1 Chip

MGX QFN 48-1 Chip is one of the more challenging components to clean with a standoff gap lower than 50µms, flux residues bridge the lands and thermal lug. The residues tend to be active due to poor outgassing channels.

MGX QFN 88-1 Chip (Back View)

MGX QFN 88-1 Chip

MGX QFN 88-1 Chip is a larger QFN with 88 signal pins and 10.5 mm squared thermal lug designed to define cleanliness levels under similar package styles.

MGX QFN DR 124-1 Chip (Back View)

MGX QFN DR 124-1 Chip

MGX QFN DR 124-1 Chip is a dual row QFN with 124 signal pins and large 7 mm squared ground lug designed to define cleanliness levels under similar package styles.

MGX Custom 64 SMT Connector (Back View)

MGX Custom 64 SMT Connector

MGX Custom 64 SMT is representative of surface mount connectors. The large pad dimensions of 0.36 mm by 2.2 mm can trap process residues pin to pin. This component is designed to define cleanliness levels on similar connector designs.

MGX SMT TH-40 Pin Custom Connector (Back View)

MGX SMT TH-40 Pin Custom Connector

MGX SMT TH-40 Pin is representative of a surface mount and thru-hole connector. This is a challenging component due to the large SMT pad size 0.5 mm by 2 mm. In addition, the wave or selective flux can wet through the barrel and intermix with the SMT flux.

MGX 2 Pin Header Shunt (Jumper)

MGX 2 Pin Header Shunt (Jumper)

The pin header shunt allows the user to turn on or off one or more components across the net of components in a specific quadrant. Should you have a failure, the shunt will allow you to determine the component from which that failure occurred. The header shunt is not designed across every board. It is commonly used on custom-designed highly dense test boards.
