nVidia GPU Package Size & Ball Count

I'm extremely curious on the type of packaging used by nVidia on their GPUs.

2 GPUs that i'm interested to know:

:: nVidia GeForce2 MX 400
:: nVidia GeForce MX 4000

What i wanted to know are:

:: Package sizes
:: Ball count

It seems that these information can't be found anywhere, nVidia or the Net.

Any1 technical able to source the info?

 
I don't think either one of those GPU's has any balls . . . and anyone using probaly doesn't have much of a package.😀





I'm sorry, I just couldn't resist!
 
I dunno.... it might be pretty hard to find; Google didn't do any good for me. The best thing might be to buy one and rip it apart (they're only like 20 bucks). It might be information they don't just give away. One other though: you could email one of their distributors like MSI, Gigabyte, or ASUS and ask for some of that info - they're the ones that actually put together the cards.

AMD Die Hard 🙂
 
Maybe I missed some info earlier:

The GPUs are packaged in FC-BGA (Flip-Chip Ball Grid Array).

The ball is the solder ball at the bottom of the GPU before it's being mounted onto the video card's PCB (Printed Circuit Board).

There is a standard govern the packaging, but, i'm not sure whether nVidia or ATI or others, followed this standard to produce their GPUs.

Since i can't find ANY information related to the packaging, i suspect that nVidia uses its OWN packaging design, hence the extremely lack of public information available.
