The 5 thou standoff of your SOIC is probably the minimum. We wouldn't be surprised to see 10 thou. With this, you could have maybe a 6 thou gap between printed solder paste and the bottom of the heat slug. So, you're expecting the rabbit ears of p

Hi SMT World, I am facing a technical challenge related to an SOIC 14lds with thermal pad on it's belly that needs to be soldered onto PCB, together with leads. It is a 50 per board, expected 80% solder load on every one. We have some units without

Keep in mind that the oven temperature does not, necessarily, equate to the board temperature. The thermal characteristics of the parts and copper will cause the board temperature to be different, sometimes significantly, than the oven temperature.

Hello all, I read about Steve's headache a few articles back and I'm really interested by his tip. However, I'm still wondering why square apertures release solder paste better than round ones. For the same volume of paste, the surface area of th

We're not clear on what you seek. So, as a starting point for our discussion, we wouldn't get agitated if we saw "routine" coplanarity of 4 thou. For instance: Maximum Lead Coplanarity [Altera] Package||Acronym||Lead material||Finish||Maximum Lead

Hi John, Depending on your board, it could make a difference. Copper finishes might leave that part of the pad exposed, which is a no-no in most places. Where as a HASL board prolly won't care if you pulled the print back. On the other end, over
