We have a PCB with the dual sided connector that slides on from the edge and has leads on the top and bottom sides of the PCB. It has 20 leads on each side of the PCB with with about .8mm pitch. The PCB also has a gold grounding strip on the edge fo

I am about to order a stencil and I can already see that I'm going to have issues. I'm hoping someone has a recipe for this scenario that we haven't tried yet. The parts are 16 mil pitch bga's, the pads are NSMD (10 mil dia. with 12.6 mil mask open

The QFP pitch is 0.5mm. Pad size is 1.475 x 0.3mm, and the new aperture size is 1.32 x 0.22mm. I'm not sure about whether or not it is lasered, but on the newly ordered stencil I selected the polishing option. Looks like the pad width is already 2/3

Leaded HASL on small pads can be quite difficult to print on...the HASL tends to be domed rather than flat..and that can affect print quality...you really need a perfectly flat pcb pad to print paste on when you are assembling 0.5mm QFPs. If the pcb

snip | John and Dave, | | Again, I don't work with larger chip devices with this issue. The company I now work with developed a strategy, based on considerable research (as others of us did in the past), to do things like placing 0603's on 0402 pad

Re: Questions #2 Are you having solderability problems with that arrangement? Sounds like problems could be solved at the wave solder. If the customer has already spun pcb then sometimes for low volume it would be easier to correct the problem at wa
