Designer/Assembler,
I was surprised to see 35 mil spacing between pads of 0603. Looking the
IPC-SM-782 that number is 24 mils. Why such as difference? Does any user
aware of requiring 35 mils spacing for 603 cap using any standard foot print
library? What is the spacing being used for reflow and wave for 0603 caps.
Can Assembly house shall catch this kind of problem across the board during
prototype? And how difficult is that job or is it almost impossible, I mean
using any program as later on design engineer said that they never
complained before and why now!
I still have to contact my layout house yet on his foot print selection.
