Which risk increases when rapid thermal cycling stresses a BGA (ball grid array)?

💡 Explanation

Repeated thermal cycling causes large temperature gradients, therefore thermo-mechanical stresses induce solder joint fatigue because of differences in thermal expansion, leading to crack propagation, rather than affecting dielectric breakdown or electromigration significantly.
