Connectors. The NSMD BGA pad stack is necessary for the Ball to fully collapse around the pad edge securing it to the PCB - The SMD (Solder Mask Defined) BGA pad stack prevents the Ball Collapse

0.40 mm pitch footprint. So if the pitch is 0.50 mm or less then we should create a SMD ( solder mask defined ) pads. i entered 0.40 mm pitch and BGA Non-Collapsing Ball but the Library Expert is always creating NSMD pads

. What about other BGAs? Would using solder mask defined pads be problematic for BGA parts? IIRC, the ball encompasses the pad, which would not happen for

minimize capacitance. With NSMD pads, the pour-connected pads end up with extra exposed copper. They are effectively starved for solder paste, since the paste only covers the nominal pad area
