especially as I (and that company) had invested numerous hours to
identify the issues, think about measures and improvements of the
production process we have at hand. We also have studied all materials
and documents that are available, e.g. application notes by Texas
Instruments which explain the warpage effect which we could see in X-Ray.

It feels like a soccer team trying to win champion's league, but all
training didn't make us good enough and we are sent home with 30%
goals, but it was still not enough...

It is much easier to produce such a thing from a technology point of view
since there is no PoP involved.

Thanks! Yes, we have working boards. Just not enough from the money and
time we invested. By investing a little more time we hope to be able to
repair some more.
