Hi Morris, Not that I�m forced to do it at the moment but if I had to again in the future I would try a different way and than look for a masking method that goes along with our other processes. I�ve just seen this in board houses and they offered u

Has anyone had luck with 0201 cap board design, solder printing and reflow? IPC-SM-782 does not provide much help. I am particularly interested in attach pad design, stencil aperture design and thickness, solder paste (mesh, metal content, etc.), and

What we did was design or panels with routed out edges held on by tabs. This was very effective. All we use is a pair of pneumatic scissors to cut off the tabs. We are using from single-to 13 layer PCB's and we have had no problems with delamination
