PS3 Reballing Service, the only permanent PS3 YLOD Fix
PS3 Reballing Service, the only permanent PS3 YLOD Fix
For
All the people who have been asking for a permenant fix for their
Playstation 3. Whether your system has the famous YLOD yellow light of
death, doesn’t display video or has any other video problem, here is the
repair service that everyone has been waiting for ….!!!
What is PS3 Reballing?
PS3 Reballing Service
When
you reball the chips in your PS3 you are removing the "Lead Free"
solder joints that hold the chip to the board, then re-attaching the
chip using brand new "Leaded" solder.
It
is called "PS3 Reballing" because each of the solder joints on the
bottom of the chip are so fine and there are so many joints, they are
done by using little solder balls. The solder balls are held in place
using a special stencil, designed specifically for the PS3 chip.
Reball
PS3 ChipThe little "leaded" solder balls are held in place by flux,
then pre-soldered to the chip using hot air. The chip is then lined up
very carefully on the PS3 Motherboard making sure all solder joints line
up perfectly. Once the joints are lined up, hot air heats the chip from
the top and melts the solder balls perfectly to the corresponding
solder.
PS3 Reball Rework Station
Heating
up the motherboard can cause the board to warp and crack. To prevent
this from happening the board must be heated evenly. This requires a
special Rework Station using hot air and bottom heat.
PS3 Reball Repair vs. PS3 Reflow Repair
Performing
a reflow of the solder on your PS3 does work and will repair your
system in most cases. The problem with reflowing is eventually the YLOD
problem will return. The reason for this is the "Lead FREE" solder used
by Sony on the chips. Lead Free solder is very brittle and can crack
easily. It is also less resistant to heat than "Leaded" solder and can
melt easier. Over time from the chip heating and cooling the "Lead Free"
solder will fail again, resulting in the PS3 YLOD returning.
With
Reflowing "NO" new solder is applied and the chip is not removed. The
chip is just re-heated so that the solder will melt and hopefully
re-connect the joints.
With
"Reballing" all the old solder is removed. The chip is cleaned, the
board is cleaned and brand new "Leaded" solder is applied. Using Leaded
solder makes this repair stronger than the original and your system will
last for a very long time.
