Dear Technetters,
I am having an issue with the very different sizes of Thermal Pads used on a
Power PCB mix. A 4 Layer PCB with 2 Oz Copper for the inner layers and 1 Oz.
+ Plating on the outside.
At the Soldering, the small components get too hot while solder (Lead-Free)
does not get up high enough on the component side.
I am wondering if there is a formula to calculate the size / shape and
dimension of the optimum Thermal Pad (Frein Thermique).
Thank you for your input

Very Best Regards
