There are many divine principles, disciplines, mandates and theoretical dogmas that have not made their way into IPC-2221, why would you expect  this question, with all the good previously alluded to variables and potential mitigating scenarios, to be covered with a standard keep-out area?

Since you asked again I'll accept your naiveté on this subject matter and state; 0.025 " keep-out clearance from edge of hole to nearest pad geometry.

Subject: Re: [TN] Mounting Hardware to QFP Component Lead



True, but I can't help but wonder if I'm missing something...

Of all the issues that the IPC committees have discussed over the last few DECADES, why can't I find anything about mounting structures to component clearance?



hmmm...  dar's gotta be sumpn 'bout dat!



thanks anyway,

Jack

My 144 pin land pattern is pretty close (100mils) but we are mounting the board into a very flat structure (no bowing) I can't imagine the compression of the board material could affect gull-wing style lead connections (maybe BGA?) but I don't know...
