I second Wolfgang. Welcome, It's good to hear from someone who wants to design something we can build. Another useful resource is the land pattern book from SMT Plus www.smtplus.com 831/438-6116 Also useful are the component mechanicals available (fr

I would suggest getting a copy of IPC-SM-782A, Surface Mount Design and Land Pattern Standard, and IPC-7525 Stencil Design Guidelines. My experience is that reflow does not cause tombstoning very often. Pad and land design, paste volume, and placemen

Hi Steve, the "framepiece" I mentioned may be misunderstanding but sometimes I don�t know the common english expression. What I meant is if the PCBs do not come in panels (now you mentioned 3-up panel)the PCB supplier could add additional material to

Folks, I am interested in learning more about solder robbing pads to help and avoid bridging for wave solder applications. I have heard of a few companys that use this process in their design but have not seen any documents for design rules etc.

The EIA does not provide that information. EIA standards focus on component dimensions. Alternately consider: ...cut... SM-782A - Surface Mount Design & Land Pattern Standard, Inc. Am. 1 & 2 ANSI Approved Get up-to-date land pattern recommendat

No, I�m suggesting an increase in the distance between the two pads on the board. This "G" in SM-782A "Surface Mount design & Land Pattern Standard" parlance. You shouldn�t fight solder balls for long periods. You should just increase the pressure

Thank you all for your replies. Thanks to your replies and backup from the IPC-SM-782A (section 3.6.3.2) and James Blankenhorn's "SMT Design Rules & Standards," the designer has agreed to provide adequate clearance between the via and the pad. I wi

Go to http://www.ipc.org and look up IPC-7351 - Generic Requirements for Surface Mount Land Pattern and Design Standard The successor to the IPC-SM-782A is here! The document covers land pattern design for all types of passive and active components

Hi All I have a 0.7 mm diameter hole for vias, what�s the minimum annular ring for this hole diameter? What�s the term unsupported and supported holes refer to in IPC-2221 9.1.2 Annular Ring Requirements? I have a proto-type PCB (designed by our R&
