| We are changing from through-hole to SMT, wondering what pitch requirements would an 8 pin SOAC require for pick and place? We think that this would be our finest pitch part. | John: Never heard of an "SOAC." SO packages are 50 ptch (50 mil, 1

Thanks a lot,, so assuming we are using standard parts, with nothing out of the ordinary we could safely assume that a machine capable of 20 mil would be more than able to meet our needs down the road. | We are changing from through-hole to SMT, won

1. It is hard to tell, but your PCB vendor should test the PCB. 2. I think the important thing is the width of the apertures. You should have it laser-cut, and control the width no more than 90% of half pitch. Good luck.

What pitch? You can go 5 mil or even 6 mil stencils depending on your screen printer. Also what do you consider "less solder"? What defect are you having. Remember on a QFP you use the heel filet to determine proper solder joint - not the toe.

We had similar issues until we went to a 6 mil stencil thickness.

Let's narrow this down. Questions are: * Are you putting the proper amount of solder in the board with your stencil print process? * If you are putting the proper amount of solder in the board, where is the solder going? Pick one and then fill-in th

Good morning, All: I am from PCB shop and one of our customer is experiencing solder bridge on 16 mil pitch QFP( immersion gold finish). Land width requirement is 8 +/- 1 mil measured over top of of land and our mean is 7 mil. Bottom land width is 8
