Address,
We use .020 pitch devices extensively in our designs, 12mil lands
with 8mil spacings. The conductors widths coming from these
lands are 8mils (2.1 Cu thk; .0007 foil and .0014 plating). In addition to
other varibles, I believe the 8mil cond width is robbing much needed
heat for solderability. The 8mil cond width is out of context for
such lands and FPT devices.
Q: How much influence does the conductor really have on the wetting
of the land in reflow (No heavy copper planes in the 8 layer
lay-up)?
Q: Is there a test that can be conducted to determine the amount
heat absorbed by the land.
I am in the process of convincing Hardware Design to reduce the
conductor width for the reason above, in addition to buying real
estate.
Please advise.
