The first thing I do when looking at a part relative to stencil design, is determine the coplanarity per the data sheet. Ideally your stencil thickness should be equal to, or if needed, greater than the coplanarity. You want the solder paste to com

Steve Often solder mask is the only solution but in many cases there is enought space between smt and thru-hole to utilize a component masking wave solder pallet. The advantage to a pallet is consistancy of results and excellent protection of masked

We have an array of boards that are difficult to depanel due to components being close to the edge. I want to route a space between strips (boards are 14" long x 1" wide) and have breakaway tabs like mouse bites, but the customer won't accept the ja

We considered direct marking already John. It's not very practical for us to do that. We need to put labels on components as well as boards. A laser or inkjet would cause us to have to change too many things in our processes. We'd still need to do la

| We've noticed that there are many different recommendations for pad sizes for various SMT parts. This seems to vary wildly from manufacturer to manufacturer for the same case sizes. Is there any standards that can used used to specify these sizes
