How can we identify the BGA area of PCB?

Hear about BGA PCB Assembly service, but I never order it. How can we identify the BGA area of PCB? Just very curious.

BGA stands for Ball Grid Array. It is a style of component footprint. These footprints appear as a rectangular array of small circles – one where each “ball” of the component is attached.

There will generally be a rectangular outline around the array that corresponds to the edges of the component’s package, and probably also some silkscreen (written) information identifying the component.

What Others Are Asking

Which soldering iron tip should I use?

All of the soldering I’ve done to this point has been with through-hole components. I hope to move up to some smaller surface-mount parts at some point in the future. I’ve got a Weller WES51 soldering station. There is a large number of ET series tips available. How do I choose the right tip for the components I’ll be working with?

How can I fix the PCB to the mechanical structure?

I designed a PCB with an imaging sensor that is mechanically coupled to a lens assembly using four 2-56 screws. I’m noticing that even though the screws are holding the board tightly against the mechanical structure if I flick or lightly knock the the assembly the image “moves”.  I’m hoping to get a few suggestions for ways to fix the PCB to the mechanical structure. Any suggestions for adhesives or the like? Something else?
