ADC08D1020: SOLDER VOIDING

Part Number: ADC08D1020

Can you please tell me what is the acceptable percentage of solder voiding for the center ground/thermal pad on this device.

  • Jerry,

    The soldermask clearance needs to be larger than the pad on the board, as a general rule of thumb. 110% would make the clearance a little larger.

     

    Regards,

  • Hi Jerry

    Thermal vias in the pad area should be filled and un-masked to minimize voiding.

    Overall void percentage should be less than 50% of the device thermal pad area.

    Best regards,
