Hello, I havea 0.4mm pitch TQFP with heat transfer pad on the bottom side of component. I will appreciate any suggestions with regards to: 1) stencil thickness (Rest of components on board are 0603 passives and few 40 mil pitch IC's) 2) Stencil

Hi All, Is there any specific control for solder height and volume? Such as 3 mil what will be the height and volume upper and lower limit?

1- Thickness 0.005" 2- I usually reduce 50% of the thermal pad, but it also depend on original size of thermal pad somehow I have to either create window panel or crosshatch otherwise component wil get wimming during reflow. Hope this will help. Reg

Stencil Thickness should be .005" A reduction along with cross hatching is a must for the center pad to reduce paste volume as well as to assure even paste deposit while printing on a large pad. With out the cross hatch, the squeegie will most like

For height, I start +-2mil usually. For 3mil stencils, my lower limit starts at 1.5mil, upper is 5. If the area is chem ethed, I normally add .5 to the stencil height. My default volume is 60 - 160%. Then print specs are adjusted till I see fit, then

Hi Folks, I hope someone can help me, Is the homeplate stencil design (for reduced solder paste) the same for preventing solder balls as it is for reducing tombstones? i.e. the reduction of solder paste under the component termination. I'm trying to

IIT is a reputable supplier. They will be more than happy, happy to help a newbie get a good product. Continuing, at one level of product design sophistication ordering by remote will provide you with a perfectly acceptable stencil. But on the o
