I' designing a PCB with SMD components to optimize the land patterns for wave soldering. I find that the IPC-SM-782 land patterns are not robust enough for wave soldering, yielding ramdom skips and bridges. This PCB will also give me insight on sha

Your thinking is correct. Wave soldering pads that were designed for reflow can create problems: * Large pads used for reflow [too much solder] can create reliability problems. * Bridging [too much solder] creates rework. * Skipping & shadowing from

In the beginning, there was TO-5. And it was good. Flushed with success, they created TO-220. It too was good. Then came SMT. It was better than some things, but then again ... In these early days, there was a haze on the horizon that blocked t

Hi! Can anyone tell me what is the min spacing between PCB edge & land pattern to avoid cracking of components due to mechanical stresses caused while depaneling with cookie/pizza cutter. Thnx!

Min spacing will be 0.75'' on all the 4 edges

Thanks Steve, that's very clear!

Here's what we suggest: * Keep a 5-mm space between a board edge and a ceramic capacitor. * Mount the capacitor parallel relative to the edge. * Design pads about a half of the termination. * Fixture the board when using your pizza cutter.

Thnx Dave! I have not seen anyone as yet using fixtures to support brds while using Pizza cutters. Will check it out.

Boardhouse, would it be possible to attach a picture of such a routed slot together with a V cut? I was always told the 2 don't work together that well because of tolerances.

Is this what you are looking for? We do this on quite a few boards and it has eliminated component problems from the Cab depaneler (pizza cutter)
