Guy,
These are micro8 and sop packages, 25 mil pitch.
Leads may be up to 18 mils wide, while land is only 13 mils (nominal lead
width).

All I have found so far are requirements that do not say a side fillet is
req'd. I would like to find a standard that states a side fillet is not
required.

Thanks for the help,
FNK

Hey Steve,
If you are watching, what is your take on side fillets?
How do you interpret IPC-610 figure 12-71?

Earl,
comments?

Werner,
What loss in integrity and/or reliability is caused by no side fillet?

Thanks to Peter and Gary for your replies, they are reinforcing my case.

Something is wrong. What type of component are we discussing? Side joint
requirments are specific to component types.

If there is a compliant land pattern that is narrower than the lead width it
would be new to me.

I have seen "compliant design" reduced by undercut resulting land patterns
like you describe.
