Michael: On reliabiliity, consider that: � IPC-SM-782, "Surface Mount Design And Land Pattern Standard" and IPC-D-279, "Design Guidelines for Reliable Surface Mount Technology Printed Board Assemblies" specifically describe via in pads as "poor des

Thanks DaveF, Ohh I still whish there was a way to share some pictures... * Pads on pcb are very very strange: It varies from a non uniform pattern but after we measure these I would say ~0.22 - 0.24mm dia. Haha, We have never discovered such a stra

From what I have seen of the Omron software your most interesting challenge and prerequisite for a clean and complete inspection is a full understanding of the color triangle and it's settings. I know you can find almost the same interface/GUI in the

MoonMan, I'll take a crack at the list. Feel free to answer the ones I don't! 1. Solderability is a parameter which indicates how well a component can be soldered. As far as Solder Termination Coatings go, here are some up�s and down�s of a few. Ha

First, not that it�s bad, but SM-782, the land pattern standard is a pretty far distance from a DFM check list. Now, if you�d said D-275 er more properly 222X, ama be twitchin� less. Second, your process should include two distinct elements: 1 Data

We're having some problems with 0402's tombstoning. On a board with about 300 parts we're getting about 12 to 20 tombstones per board. The caps seem to do it more often than the res. The pads appear to be in accordance with IPC SM 782 amendment 1, S

Hi Greg. FujiCam has two ways of calculating the placement coordinate for a component. - The "FujiCam/Unicam way": calculating component origo as the center of the designed component pads. - Use the PCB designers part origo which could be center of
