No, Thunder, it would not be OK to point to fab if you don't see any assy-related defects. Whenever pointing to a cause, you must support your conclusion with hard FA evidence. Unfortunately, this is not always easy to do. If you have no evidence one way or the other, it would be better to just say that the failure mechanism and cause were not determined even after full FA.

|
| We did PCT on a BGA device and found SCAN failure during ATE. No continuity and leakage failure and obvious package failures found after FA. JEDEC standard says that PCT should not be applied to laminated devices, such as BGA. Can I dismiss the failures? |
