IBM offers a plastic ball grid array, PBGA, which supports 256 balls as the PowerPC 750CXe package. This
package is JEDEC MSL-3 and should be handled accordingly.
Note: Use the A01 corner designator for correct placement. The A01 corner identifier dot is approxi-
mately 1.27 mm in diameter and is marked on the top of the part. Some packages also have a chamfer on
the A01 corner, as shown in Figure 5-1.
