How wide are your pads? What paste are you using? What is your board finish? Could you please post a link to the datasheet for the component? We place a lot of MLFs, both in a Pb and Pb-free process. Our standard stencil design for MLF compon

My suggestion is to conduct a Design For Manufacturing (DFM)study on the assembly in question. Pay particular attention to the pad sizes, component lead dimensions and satisfy yourself that those two factors are correct. Given that pads match compone

The QFP pitch is 0.5mm. Pad size is 1.475 x 0.3mm, and the new aperture size is 1.32 x 0.22mm. I'm not sure about whether or not it is lasered, but on the newly ordered stencil I selected the polishing option. Looks like the pad width is already 2/3

There certainly is a problem, but it�s unclear from your description whether the source of the problem is: * Design * Soldering * Component quality * A combination Recognizing the SMT connectors see stress that other SMT component do not, you give t

It is strange that you're having issues while using the same process parameters (including stencil) that worked successfully before. It doesn't guarantee that it's not one of those parameters changing in a manner that's not apparent, but it does sugg
