While investigating a routing study for a new bga device, I found the vendor used round 20 mil pads on 0402 decoupling caps.This allows fitting the caps between break out vias on their 1mm pitch BGA. Round pad gives about 8 mils diagonally from pin t

0.5mm pitch QFP's are typically mixed with large components on all of my boards. I usually use a 6 mil stencil with a minimum aperture width of 10 mils. Normal aperture size is 10 x 50 which causes shorts about 20% of the time. A recent purchase of

Ok Thanks, i have reduced thermal pad size by 4.5 mils on top and bottom part of this footprint where the problem was occuring, so now the clearance between thermal pad and lead pads are 12 mils instead of 7.5 mils on two sides. (i kept the signal pa

It seems that it will work with 5 mil stencil. To be safe use 4 mil if the rest of the design allows it. 10x20mil apertures for both rows. If you have bigger footprint in the corners, make bigger apertures there. For the ground plane, I would use ver

I've never seen successful printing with a step as deep as you seem to be saying. The keep out would have to be jigundous!!!! SMTnet Technical Library: https://smtnet.com/library/files/upload/Step-Stencils-laserjob.pdf I'd guess * Maximum step

Hi Steve, I think MIL-P-81728A, MIL-F-14256 and Fed std QQ-S-571/624 talks about it, but it has been superseded by J-STD-006. Hope it helps. Regards Kc.

What is the best aperture opening for micrBGA with 0.8 mm ball pitch and 16 mils ball diameter?The pad size on the PCB is 12 mils.

Hi Jax, The microbga discussed earlier in the forum is mounted on 16 mils pad whereas mine is on 12 mils pad. Can I use the same aperture opening ?Please advise.
