We're trying out 0603 packages on some 0805 footprints (at this stage only on some test boards) since our vendor tells us the 0805's are going to be getting harder to get, and more expensive to pay for. I understand the IPC footprint for the two is

Whatever I've said, my intent has never been to insult you. Smack you yes, insult you no. True, you never said the word �strings� but you did say � * �� shouldn't I be able to expect enough green strength from my epoxy to hold 0603 caps in place wi

Not as such. Choices are: 1 Cut and epoxy some board foil from your board fabricator. 2 Sacrifice part a pad repair kits from the likes of: * Engineering Lab 905-785-1982 * Circuit Technology Center 978-374-5000 * General assembly suppliers catalog

The aperture over the pads is set to 95% coverage of the pad. The stencil is 0.12 mm thick.

What is your pad width? What is lead width? Is the part gang masked, or has masking between the pads? Pads plated or HASL, if HASL how thick? What is board thickness and size? Does it need to be fixtured for support thru out the process. Semi auto sc

Are the apertures on the stencil reduced in width or 1:1 with the pads? It depends on the pad width and foil thickness but we usually reduce aperture width for any part that results in an aperture wall spacing of less than 8.5 mils.

You should be well within area and aspect ration guidelines with that. Are you printing and placing close to center on the pads? Sometimes operators will "bump" the parts to center them on the pads if they're not placed correctly, and if they've bee

Normally if the package is defined properly I would expect your machine to place it correctly but we have some parts pushed right down to the pads. If the paste is centered, and the parts are centered, and you have obvious bridging potential coming

I am doing another run today. I'll check how central the machine is placing the components onto the pads. I wonder if the part is off slightly and smudges past across the pins? What about if the part is being placed too deep into the paste?
