Please help. Tom: I saw your earlier post. I'm not familar with an I-shape SMDs. A common workmanship standard used in electronic assembly is: ANSI/IPC-A-610. It can be purchased from IPC (www.ipc.org). Help me understand I-Shaped SMDs. What do they look like? What distinguishes them from from other SMDs? When are they used? All that stuff ... One more thought. If the issue is pad design, IPC has a pad layout calculator that may help. See the link below. TTYL Dave F
