I'm a pcb designer. I have a customer that needs the option of using either a .3 wide or .4 wide 32 pin j-leaded part in the same location. These are only prototype boards and small quantity. Probably won't be reflowed. Question: In order to accomodate both parts the footprint is going to be extra long. What problems will be encountered soldering the part to the board? Will the solder wickup onto the j-lead properly? Any suggestions? -------------------------------------- Larry L. Pucket Sandia National Labs. Dept. 9784 MS/0624 P.O.
