Thank you very much for your response.I would like to know in which cases this could be the case. We have a disagreement how to interpret this and I need a 3rd opinion. Thank you very much for your help!

Hello, Could you please tell me if there is any industry standard specifying QFN to PCB standoff after soldering? Is any gap allowed? Browsing IPC-A-610, I have found nothing. Any input would be appreciated. Regards

some PQFN package configurations have no toe exposed or do not have a continous solderable surface on the exposed toe and a toe fillet will not form. (IPC-A-610F 8.3.13)

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

Yes, this is for tin-lead profile. And for the QFN pins which has copper exposed that not required and not possible to have fillet on side surface as in IPC, see 8.3.13, in IPC-A-610-G

Evtimov, here is a picture of what we are seeing. After evaluating with the IPC-A-610 book it looks like we are getting an insufficient Heel Fillet Height. I will add a picture of an example. UPDATE: i cannot figure out how to add a picture to this m

Double-check me on this, but I don't believe that A-610 [IPC-A-610] requires side fillets on QFN solder connections, because the sides of most terminations are not plated. Plating on the bottom of the termination is sufficient for a proper solder con
