If your spend is in that sort of region it doesn't cost a great deal more to get a batch of boards professionally pasted, picked, placed and reflowed.

Hi

Yes indeed, been there done that. Not very hard at all.

All you need is the six layer pc board (can be bought), the FPGA (Digikey has them), a few of these and a couple of those. Spend less than $100 and you are in business if the PC board volume is high enough. 

In this case the next step in the business is to solder the 256 ball 1 mm spacing BGA package down on the pc board. Not so easy without the right tools...

Bob
