Overview

IEC 60191-6-5:2001 is an International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standard that provides mechanical standardization guidelines specifically for fine-pitch ball grid array (FBGA) semiconductor device packages. It establishes general rules for preparing outline drawings of surface-mounted semiconductor device packages with a terminal pitch less than or equal to 0.80 mm and defines design parameters for FBGA packages with square body outlines.

The standard aims to promote international uniformity by creating common outline drawings and dimensioning rules for various fine-pitch BGA structures and materials. Its scope supports the interchangeability of FBGA packages used widely in high-performance and multifunctional electronic equipment.


Key Topics

  • Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array (FBGA) Design Guide
    Guidelines for packaging semiconductor devices using fine-pitch BGAs, where external terminals are arranged in an array of solder balls with pitches ≤ 0.80 mm.

  • Outline Drawings Preparation
    Standardized general rules on how to prepare accurate and consistent outline drawings for surface-mounted FBGA packages, ensuring precise mechanical representation.

  • Package Types and Materials

    • Plastic type (P-FBGA): Resin substrates such as glass-epoxy or polyimide as the interposer.
    • Ceramic type (C-FBGA): Packages using ceramic substrates as the interposer material.
    • Flanged type: Packages with body size including a flange surrounding encapsulation or lid.
    • Real chip size type: Packages sized closely around the actual semiconductor chip.
  • Standardized Dimensions and Tolerances
    Comprehensive tables provide nominal dimensions, minimum and maximum limits for packaging elements such as body size, ball diameter, pitch, array layout, and package height. This ensures compatibility in mounting, interchangeability, and automated handling of FBGA components.

  • Datum and Reference Planes for Mechanical Drawing
    The standard defines critical datums and seating planes to aid the repeatability of measurement and assembly processes.


Applications

  • Semiconductor Device Packaging
    Supports designers and manufacturers in creating consistent mechanical outlines for FBGA packages, ensuring reliable assembly and compatibility with printed circuit boards (PCBs).

  • Surface Mount Technology (SMT)
    Provides guidelines crucial for SMT processes involving high-density fine-pitch BGA packages, enabling precise soldering and mounting on PCBs.

  • High-Performance Electronics
    Facilitates the development of compact, multifunctional devices such as mobile phones, computers, and consumer electronics by standardizing miniaturized packaging.

  • Automated Assembly and Testing
    Dimensions critical for automated pick-and-place robotics and optical gauging are standardized, improving production efficiency and quality control.

  • International Interchangeability
    Assists in global trade and component sourcing by providing universally accepted design and dimension rules for FBGA packages.


Related Standards

  • IEC 60191-6:1990 – Offers general rules for preparing outline drawings for surface-mounted semiconductor device packages and serves as a foundational document referenced within IEC 60191-6-5.

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Directives – IEC 60191-6-5 follows ISO/IEC Directives Part 3 for standard development ensuring procedural consistency.

  • Area Array Package Standards – Other IEC and JEDEC standards on ball grid array packages complement the FBGA design guide for broader packaging solutions.


Summary

FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the
two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60191-6-5 has been prepared by subcommittee 47D: Mechanical
standardization of semiconductor devices, of IEC technical committee 47: Semiconductor

MECHANICAL STANDARDIZATION OF SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES –
Part 6-5: General rules for the preparation of outline drawings
of surface mounted semiconductor device packages –
Design guide for fine-pitch ball grid array (FBGA)
1 Scope
This part of IEC 60191 provides common outline drawings and dimensions for all types of
structures and composed materials of fine-pitch ball grid array (hereinafter called FBGA),
whose terminal pitch is less than, or equal to, 0,80 mm and whose package body outline is
square.
The demand for area array style packages exists according to the multi-functioning and high
performance of electrical equipment. The object of this design guide is to standardize outlines
and secure interchangeability of FBGA packages. The terminal pitch and package outlines of
these fine-pitch array packages are smaller than those of BGA packages.
