My design group wants to change our route keep out around all SMT parts to 5 mil even under the parts with zero standoff. Are others in the industry routing under parts that have no standoff? My fear is that we will get shorting if the mask is scaped

Thank you Mike. What is your thinking on the use of surficants, as an alternative to saponifiers, for cleaning under low standoff parts? Dreamy: Adding another point to the low standoff part conversation: If you have cleaning issues with 1.27 BGA,

On "Solder beading seemed to be a problem", consider revisiting the thermal recipe used for reflow. The PTH barrel may not be getting warm enough. On "Component not being designed to pin in paste work, with no proper standoffs", consider: * Using a

Ours does not have a vacuum option so that may be it, the machine came with an assortment of standoffs and support plates as well. it is not drilled out in a grid but does have the center tapped which I assume is for the vacuum tooling. Ours has a

Shy: You say, "I've already done some evaluation to reduce the heigh of the glue but it fails at wave solder which cause the component to be drop/missing." Based on your evaluation, questions are: * What is the relation between component standoff an

We use a ministencil with a QFN pattern that is very similar to the orginal stencil. Here's a link to one of the better white papers on QFN rework: http://www.intersil.com/data/tb/TB389.pdf QFN with less than a 2 thou standoff are less reliable tha

Q1:What is the relation between component standoff and drop missing? A1:component standoff will identify either solder paste at SMT side can form the fillet at component terminal or not. Drop/missing component is totally out of the topics since i jus
