Hello Dave, Mechanically the conection between the component pad and PCB pad is good (the solder joint is very strong). The problem is associated with poor contact after the use by the customer (vibration, temperature, etc). You can see the pictures

Alot of the companies out there use Standards developed internally, centered around there paste, equipment, and reflow processes. Normally you will see either 5mil or 6mil stencils used for everything in house with the exceptions of specific boards.(

Guys, Solder paste height worries all of us as we encounter the non wets after reflow. More so in fine pitch QFP's. The non wets are not always caused by solder paste height. Many other contributors. Even the pad geometry on te board can contribute t
