Hi! Can anyone tell me what is the min spacing between PCB edge & land pattern to avoid cracking of components due to mechanical stresses caused while depaneling with cookie/pizza cutter. Thnx!

there are numerous factors: -stencil age -stencil finish and thickness -stencil-board vertical alignment -board support -squeegee pressure -squeegee blade material and condition question here is did stencil changed its dimension over time? ar

Those patterns are either: a) the stencil has recieved some streching stress - either being pushed on and dented by some obstruction, or b) has been worn thin and therefore streched as a result. This type of change to your foil may cause a slight sh

hello; When we are doing component land pattern design , one thing will always be in our mind; that is the basic criteria or common land pattern design guideline for reflow and flow solder assemblies. For basic fomula in calculating resistors are:

| What to look for that causes tombstoning and the corective action. | Check your land-patterns. If they do not meet IPC standards, change your CAD libraries to IPC (or some other industry accepted standards such as SMTPLUS). If you have "home-gr

Hi guys; There are a few points that should be taken in to considerations regarding IPC-SM-782 land pattern and design rules. As a general rule all SMT reflow pattern should be in comply with SM-782 but however for special cases like : * PLCC land

We are facing lot of problems with tombstoning in 0201 components. Ironically tomstoning in these components is not occuring while reflow but it is happening when we subject them to thermal cycling test. We have been investigating the cause and thoug

We have had the same problem with several boards, and the problem was with the land pattern design on the PCB, not the stencil. We found that the part tends to center itself on the one large pad, and if the two smaller pads are not the right distance

Hi All I have a 0.7 mm diameter hole for vias, what�s the minimum annular ring for this hole diameter? What�s the term unsupported and supported holes refer to in IPC-2221 9.1.2 Annular Ring Requirements? I have a proto-type PCB (designed by our R&

Design to IPC standards unless a supplier provides documentation on why a change to the standard was necessary. Throw all supplier data sheets in the trash.
