Although this is not technically a bottom termination component, the method of attachment of the thermal pad is a bottom termination attachment. For bottom termination components IPC states that "thermal pad void criteria shall be established between

Having issues with soldering bottom termination components such as PQFN's. Want to begin x-ray inspection to verify wetting. Wondering about soldering acceptablility criteria?

Hi, please go through IPC 7093, its only for design and assembly process implementation for bottom termination components. its says up to 50% voids will not reduce ant electrical and thermal performance.

Hi, Below may help you out. per IPC 7093 ( Design and assembly Process Implementation for Bottom Termination Components ),Clause 6.1.5.3 voids on thermal pad up to 50% does not result in loss of thermal performance. Since the void criteria is

You can reduce and almost eliminate voids and other paste related defects in LGA's BGA's, QFN's etc, by using solid solder deposit. Its been around for 24 years, 13 in the US. It is now included in the new IPC 7093 specification for bottom terminat

In the IPC-A-610E standard QFNs are classified as BTC (bottom termination components). Most QFNs do not have a solder-able surface on the outside of the part. Usually the lead that you can see on the outside is copper and classified is not solder-a

How do you evaluate the soldering quality for those QFNs? X-Ray or AOI? For some QFNs (and other bottom termination components) it's not supposed to have solder fillets on toes. It's also noted in IPC-A-610 (Rev.F 8.3.13). Take a look at your QFN ch
