Component Pad Design
Component pads should be designed to achieve good sol-
der filets and minimize component movement during reflow
soldering. Pad designs are given below for the most com-
mon sizes of multilayer ceramic capacitors for both wave
and reflow soldering. The basis of these designs is:
• Pad width equal to component width. It is permissible to
decrease this to as low as 85% of component width but it
is not advisable to go below this.
• Pad overlap 0.5mm beneath component.
• Pad extension 0.5mm beyond components for reflow and
1.0mm for wave soldering.
