Is below the correct interpretation of IPC 610/JSTD requirements for FLAT LUG LEADS (seen on USBs and Diodes mainly) For class 1 or 2, no toe wetting would be required as minimum side joint is only 'evident wetting' and no actual length or fillet he

Maybe your customer ment to say something like: reliability in actual use does to a large extent depend on the heel fillet and the 'bottom flat' wetting. If the foot length is

Hold off on the sharp knife for little bit. [Yano, I get "queasy" when I see much of my blood, but other people�s blood doesn�t bother me much. Weird, eh?] [Oh bye-da-bye, I didn�t win the bar bet on "Ground Hog Day". I didn�t loose it either. T

If the solder joint meeting 8.2.5.4, minimum side joint length(D) and also meeting 8.2.5.6, minimum heel fillet height (F) but the heel fillet NOT extend to the mid point of outside bend. It is acceptable?

Sounds like you're talking about the "heel" of the lead not being soldered, in other words, no heel fillet, which IS necessary. That problem, for us, was attributed primarily to poor layout (insufficient length of pad extension to provide room for

Two things: 1 IPC pad calculator is an excellent resource for you and your board layout staff. Consider that working together with the calculator may allow you both an opportunity to balance your interests. 2 It's unlikely that the ceramic parts h

Well Greg, I don�t know YOUR 0805 Pads but if you look at the recommended pattern for 0805 in IPC-SM-782 you might notice that the Z-dimension is somewhat about the size of your 1206 part length. With that and assuming that you ask if the results wi

Casimir, The Q and other lead trimmers work extremely well if properly used. Blade life is directly proportional to to the height of the cut. There are a few factors that are very important in trimming. You are working with a solid carbide blade whi

Hi guys; There are a few points that should be taken in to considerations regarding IPC-SM-782 land pattern and design rules. As a general rule all SMT reflow pattern should be in comply with SM-782 but however for special cases like : * PLCC land

Hi All,per my understanding ,the fail mode is the heel fillet of QFP seems no good,right?If yes...I think..we should:1.increase the aperture length on stencil and make sure there's enough solder paste on pad before reflow. or you can increase your t
