Mark, We add .020" to the outside pad edge for all chip resistors including 0603's. Design the lands per IPC then add the extra pad. Do not change the Z-span of the pads. You want the extra pad on the ends to prevent shadowing. This can also be applied to Chip capacitors, but add .030" to the edges. (Embedded image moved to file: pic28145.pcx) S = .020" Resistors S = .030" Capacitors Mark Yankee <Mark.Yankee@PU To: [log in to unmask] LSE.COM> cc: Sent by: Subject: [DC] Wave soldering 0603 components DesignerCouncil <DesignerCounci [log in to unmask]> 08/01/01 01:02 PM Please respond to "DesignerCounci l E-Mail Forum."; Please respond to Mark Yankee Hello, I am trying to come up with a footprint pattern for wave soldering 0603 components. Does anyone out there wave solder 0603's and can you provide a land design (that's if it is not proprietary) or direct me to where I could find that information? Thanks in advance. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DesignerCouncil Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF DesignerCouncil.
