If you have a dispenser in-line with your process, deposit additional solder
paste to the pad or pads that are needed.

Subject: [TN] Coplanarity


Dear Technetts,
I have one custom design three leg SMT component. Two side leads (which are
pretty massive and one middle center post). These leads are designed to
create butt joints.
Drawing specifies 0.004" coplanarity for all three leads. We are using
0.007" stencil.
Now $1,000 question. I am using my life line and asking audience to help me.
It seems, that center post doesn't create good solder joint. There are
cases, when it seats only 0.001" deep in the solder and may break easily.
I cannot use more than 0.007" stencil due to other component packages.  I
don't want to touch up each solder joint after reflow.
What would you recommend? Please advise.
Sincerely,
Stella
