Kelly,

I would consider the orientation of devices to wave.  This has the greatest
effect on wave soldering SMT's on bottom side.  Keep your SOIC's and SOT's
perpendicular to the wave (long part of the body with pins parallel to the
wave so each side of pins solder at same time). Chip components 603,805,1206
normally do not cause too many problems unless they are too close.  Also
keep larger parts away from smaller parts to prevent shadowing in wave.

For Pad sizes on SOT's, I have had excellent results with 0.035"w x 0.055"l
with 0.090" separation from single pad to dual, with a 0.0375" separation
between dual pads.

For SOIC's Narrows, 0.028"w x 0.094"l on 0.050" lead pitch.

For SOIC's Wide, 0.028"w x .102"l on 0.050" lead pitch.


Hope this may help a little!
