Jim Blankenhorn [www.smtplus.com] has the best understanding of designing pads for real life. That�s because he designs them like he wants to design them and doesn�t negotiate with a committee of thousands for an IPC standard. Consider doing this

Depends on what you're talking about. For instance: Jumpers between pads: Why not use SMT jumper components? Long ECO jumper runs: When we have a serious problem in the design of our boards, we contract thick film additive jumper work. Search th

No, not as such. Consider: * Using the IPC calculator [free at http://www.ipc.org]. It allows you to consider / assess the amount of solder when designing pads. * Reviewing IPC-7525 - Stencil Design Guidelines. It gives general aperture guidelines.
