"How to succeed the first time with ultra-small QFN packages"

2008-06-04 by Matthew Smith

Hi Folks

I know that under-chip pads were mentioned recently, so I thought that I 
would pass on this link from the TimeNuts mailing list:

Article:
"How to succeed the first time with ultra-small QFN packages"
<http://www.wirelessnetdesignline.com/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=202800018>

Whilst the article describes the use of a solder stencil, I am sure that 
this technique could be reproduced manually, given good magnification 
and a steady hand.

Then all ready for the toaster oven or hotplate!

Cheers

M
