Suggestions are: * Limit pad width to 0.008" [0.2mm] * Use IPC-7525 Stencil Design Guidelines * Avoid Type 4 pastes, if you can * Slow down your print head to 0.63"/sec [16 mm/sec] * Consider the suggestions on printing by rpereira in the past

i would like to request some advice on manually dispensing paste for super fine pitch components. first some background. i am a small design house and specialize in sub-miniature prototypes for avionics. so far, i have mostly used stainless steel st

We are working with a 16mil TSOP Land width=0.2mm(8mil) and use: 1.Type 4 particle size solder paste. 2.Laser cut electropolished stencil: Aperture width=0.19mm (we tried lower than this but had solder insufficiency). Thickness=0.005"(130 microns)

Hello, i don't know if is possible to dispense paste but for reduction of cost we use a diferent type of stencils, from aluminium of 0,2 mm, purchased from a typography of newspapers. Ofcourse the pcb for what we use this stencil are simple. But th

I am optimizing a stencil opening for BGA with 0.4mm pitch and pad diameter of 0.2mm. Can anyone advice of stencil thickness and stencil opening I can use in order to have a good paste release. Thanks for all your answers.

Maybe something like this could work?

Hi Jandon, Thanks, I will try it on my DOE.

Yes, 0.25x0.25 square could work @0.1 thickness, use nano-coating or electroform stencil for better solder paste release.

Use a type 5 solder for maximum paste release.

We are going to begin using a 64 pin 10mm QFP with 0.5mm lead pitch. I was recently asked if we need to purchase our PCB with E3 coating instead of tinned pads when using the .5 pitch. The concept being suggested is that the E3 coating will give us b
