This question is regarding stencil design: I am having voids under QFN TI P/N LMZ20502SILT. I have attached component pic. Signal pin is 18X16 mils. Center pads are 31 mil sq. Initially I had stencil done with one mil per side reduction on signal pad

Hi VChauhan, I'll preface this by saying I am no DaveF. Voiding can occur when the flux in the paste boils and vapourises, the expanding vapour needing somewhere to go displaces the paste. So... what we have done in the past: 1) Step the stencil d

To all good suggestions I will add a few other thoughts: 1. Check PCB design(attached). THis mask clearance there is designed so you have some gas escape plan- verify if your PCB design follows that. 2. You can have a long soak reflow profile to re

Adding to Rob's suggestions ... One of the theories about voiding in thermal / ground pads of BTC is: Solder starts melting at the edge of the pad and moves inward towards the center of the solder mass. This traps flux volatilizes. So, there needs t

Hello, other colleagues gave you valid ideas. I found it helpful if i reduce the size of the cooling openings. I would suggest making the four big square into very small many diamonds. This would maybe decrease your voiding with 2-4 percent. Btw how

Some people involved in PCB assembly process claim that SMD components reflow soldering problems are often caused by traces running under a component. According to this claim, trace (or any copper) covered by solder mask and placed under SMD componen

Are you doing this to minimize solder paste splattering? Is this a value that you use for all QFN's (would the overall size of a QFN matter)? I was told reducing placement force with these components is recommended so just was wondering what is bein
