A ball grid array (BGA) assembly can include a component substrate having at least one underfill channel defined therethrough providing fluidic communication between a first side of the component substrate and a second side of the component substrate, a plurality of pads or leads exposed on the second side and configured to be soldered to a mating PCB, a cover mounted to the component substrate defining a reservoir cavity between the first side and the cover, and an underfill material disposed within the reservoir cavity such that the underfill material can flow through the at least one underfill channel to a gap defined between the second side and the mating PCB when the component substrate is being soldered to the mating PCB.
