Practical Components will showcase its advanced technologies in representative AAT Aston’s exhibit at Hall A2 Stand 578 scheduled to take place November 12-15, 2019 at the New Munich Trade Fair Center in Munich, Germany.
Celebrating 22 years of participating at Productronica, Practical will showcase many innovative technologies new to the trade fair. Visitors can learn more about the company’s latest advancements, including:
- New SMTA Solder Paste Test Vehicle for Miniaturized Surface Mount Technology. Optimize the stencil printing and reflow portions of SMT assembly with this SMTA test vehicle to help develop robust capabilities for components as small as 008004 and 01005 components and 0.3mm pitch array packages.
- New Advanced Wafer Bumping Technology Chips, Test Vehicles and Wafers such as the MB6020 with Pad Pitches of 60/55/50/45/40/35/30/25/20μm.
- Dummy eWLP-Wafers .4-CuPd-DC-NB 8" wafer-embedded copper pads.
- Dummy CSPnl-Wafers .4-DC-SAC405 8" wafers with SAC405 ball daisy-chained 0.4 mm pitch.
- New IPC/WHMA-A-620C-S Space Addendum Kit to ensure the reliability of cable and wire harness assemblies that must survive the vibration and thermal cyclic environments getting to and operating in space.
- WHMA-A620 Wire Harness Training Kit and Pegboard helps teach the visual, electrical and mechanical quality acceptability requirements for cable, wire and harness assemblies.
- B-52 Rev B CRET Cleanliness & Residue Evaluation Test Kit
- New IPC J-STD Rev F/G and IPC 7711/7721 Rework Hand Solder Training Kits
The company’s updated Website, www.practicalcomponents.com, is the comprehensive resource that is one of the most indispensable tools in electronics design and production.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
