Abstract:
Embodiments relate to an apparatus for rework of a BGA package. Memory shape material is placed adjacent to a plurality of solder joints of the package. Stimulation is applied to the material, with the stimulation causing the material to change from a non-stimulated shape to a stimulated shape. This stimulation causes an expansion of the material. As the material expands, it exerts a tensile force on the BGA package and an adjacently positioned carrier, causing a separation of the two components, while mitigating collateral heat of adjacently positioned components.

Claim (Index 9):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising the stimulation to elongate and separate the solder joints, including a first part of the solder to remain in communication with the BGA package and a second part of the solder to remain in communication with the printed circuit board.
