My 2 cents, I've been running traces between pads of 1206's and even
0805's and sot23's since, well, a long time (20+ years), will NO ill
effects.

Hello everyone,
Stupid question but...
An Engineer would like to know why it is such a bad idea to run traces
between the pads of the same component, i.e., a 1206 resistor or cap. I
know I shouldn't do it, but I can't put my finger on the spec that
supports
my distain for running these traces. Can someone steer me in the right
direction, please? Thanks...
Respectfully,

You can almost guarantee that the board they had trouble with had open
vias
under the components, and wave soldering filled the vias and made a
little
dome on the top side, ready to make short circuits to any metal bodies.
Properly tenting thye vias would fix that problem.

Subject: [DC] Traces and vias under components
Guys,
We have a customer which we are designing a mostly SMT board for that
requires all traces and vias not to be under components. This would also
include any planes being under the components. I guess in the past they
had
a board designed by some else that had a shorting problem with traced
and
vias under the components. They are insistence that this is the way it
has
to
be. Has anyone else had experience with this sort of demands? This is
not
for
space, military, high voltage, high vibration or a medical application.
Can
anyone think of anything we could tell they to change their mind?
Thank you,
wheels
