Has anyone used a "D"-shape 0402 land pattern on their design? The pad dimensions are 18x19mils (semi-circle on the other ends) and 16mil spacing between the 2 pads. What would be the stencil apperture recommendation for the above design? We've used round pads for 0402s and 15% apperture reduction before.
