If that's what you mean, here's what we call them: ROBBER PADS... Pretty close to the "thief" I guess. Those come with the design and if the wave soldering direction is not known at the time of design and/or there's no real estate limitation, the rob

While unfamiliar with some of the terms you use, could this be what you seek? http://www.pcbstandards.com/downloads/Metric%20Environment/General%20Documentation/PCB%20Design/PCB%20Design%20Routing/Metric%20BGA%20Routing.pdf Stepping backwards just

Hi, Edri, It's not uncommon for PCB fab houses to change pad sizes like that, due to design constraints....however, it always aggravates me when they do it without checking with me first. In my mind, that's the first sign of potential bad issues wi

Hi I haven't looked yet at what DaveF gave you. It is my guess that your SJR stands for Solder Joint Reliability. The answer would in general be NO to your question. Usually things in the design community are done in steps that provide a certain

Hi, We have a problem with our BGA Pad. Our PWB manufacturer make the BGA Pad in irregular form. some big, some small. Please see the picture on attachment. BGA Detail BGA Pitch 0.5 mm BGA Ball 0.3 mm BGA Pad (big) 0.2 mm (as per gerber) BGA

We currently have an issue with via's in pads which we have been living with for some time. The problem has now escalated with the need to increase the via hole size to achieve PCB fabricators aspect ratio's. We are now not only experiencing solder d

Look here: http://www.circuittechctr.com/ As a low cost approach, use copper foil purchased from a stained glass window hobbyist shop. Cut foil pieces to size with a sharp knife. Epoxy the pieces in place of the damaged pads. Tin and then solder th

The total inductance of a chip capacitor is determined both by its length to width ratio and by the mutual inductance coupling between its electrodes. So, a 1210 chip size has a lower inductance than a 1206 chip. Check with your supplier for recomm

Recently I was given a bad Bios Link from Toshiba which fried my Bios and now my laptop boots to a black screen. I recently unsoldered and removed the existing Bios chip and have ordered anotherfor replacement. Unfortunately while removing, i damag

less total area of voids, which mean a much more strength in the joint and much easier to solder such a cooling pad grounded via vias, with this approach! The same goes for big cooling pads of let say Power transistors without any via etc. Always re
