Recommendations for PCB Pad Dimensions (mm)
Figure 26: PCB Pad Dimensions
It is not recommended to place around the pads a via or micro-via that is not covered by solder
resist in an area of 0.15 mm unless it carries the same signal as the pad itself. Micro via inside the
pads are allowed.
Holes in pad are allowed only for blind holes and not for through holes.

values
The PCB must be able to resist the higher temperatures, which occur during the lead-free process.
This issue should be discussed with the PCB-supplier. Generally, the wettability of tin-lead solder
paste on the described surface plating is better compared to lead-free solder paste.
