0.5mm pitch QFP's are typically mixed with large components on all of my boards. I usually use a 6 mil stencil with a minimum aperture width of 10 mils. Normal aperture size is 10 x 50 which causes shorts about 20% of the time. A recent purchase of

I might start with the equivalent 4 or 5 mil stencil and 1:1 on the apertures. If voids are too prevalent, then I would tin the pads of the device, remove the solder, and then solder as above. You may have another hurdle, in that the resulting stan
