Funny. Can't imagine an engineer without some clutter in the workspace. While I "get" the 5S paradigm, for myself it would create a sterile, souless, and unappealing place to work. Everything in its place and a place for everything... The principle

In the IPC-SM-782 (Surface Mount Design and Land Pattern Standard) it recommends a minimum of .040" between bottomside wavesoldered chip pads. Where might I find a similar IPC recommendation for minimum space between thru-hole pads? Does anyone kno

What are people using out there for minimum spacing between vias ? We recently came across a PCB manufacturer that wants us to increase our spacing due to their process. Below is our current spec. that we follow. Spacing between via pad to via pad o

PTH to SMT spacing should be 80-100 thous. any closer will result in bridging. Scott

The pad spacings are 20 mills. I can send you a picture.
