Randy: Seems you have a long way to go to DFM. To your strategy: - proof that in the case of wrong landpattern design the IPC would have been the better choice - count money ( what�s the cost of redesigns due to bad landpatterns ) - establish at leas

Armin: Boca makes some good points about release. So, let me spin this up from a different angle ... SM-782 suggests "full radius corners" as an alternative to the more familiar square corner pads on PLCC, TSOP and QFP. We see both also. We thin

Hi Jacqueline, for the "manufacturing allowance" IPC says FAB.TOL. is the board manufacturing tolerance and PLACE ACRCY is the pick and place accuracy. For 0,8 mm pitch they give for both values 0,1 mm. Solder joint design goal data comes from empir

No, I�m suggesting an increase in the distance between the two pads on the board. This "G" in SM-782A "Surface Mount design & Land Pattern Standard" parlance. You shouldn�t fight solder balls for long periods. You should just increase the pressure

| Can anyone give me the virtues of SMT package castellations vs. no castellations with particular reference to the ruggedness and reliability of the solder joints? Any references or studies that you can point me to? Also, although I'm in favor of

| Looking for a cross-referencing and part identification guide for surface-mount components. There is very little infomation provided on some of the components themselves, and we often don't have parts lists or schematics for items we repair, so ide

Gregg, We had a similar problem with our 0603 leds. They were being placed bang on, however, during the reflow, they twisted, fell sideways etc. We played with our profile, played with the paste volume & land pattern design, and only had a small impr
