After a long wait of seeing that EOMA 68 was going nowhere… surprise, there is a recent update. Alas, it pretty much confirms what I’ve said, it’s going nowhere very quickly. So, what was the pproblem this time? Issues with Ball Grid Array (BGA) soldering gone wrong is the suspect, X-ray scans are needed to confirm. When a PCB is not accurately printed, oversized copper traces can result in the solder balls spreading too far to the extent that a solder bridge can form. So, now you know, BGA soldering truly is a challenge, even when you have printed circuit boards.
