The IPC-7351B LP Wizard is an IPC-7351B SMT land pattern calculator that allows you to define your own CAD land patterns if the correct CAD library part is not already available, and export to your CAD tool - it automatically builds CAD Library Decals in their native CAD format! The IPC-7351B LP Wizard will eventually automatically build CAD land pattern symbols in IPC-2581 neutral CAD database format that can be imported into any CAD Tool.
The IPC-7351B LP Wizard allows you to change the Manufacturing Tolerances that determine the pad size, Placement Courtyard Tolerance, PAD Width Round-off, Component Tolerance, Land Pattern Name, and the Solder Joint Analysis. Alternatively, you can simply use the default IPC settings.
This product provides the Pick & Place Zero Component Rotation for accurate assembly data. The JEDEC JEP95 publication and the EIA / ANSI 481 specification for tape and reel packaging was used to determine the exact component zero rotation on the assembly tape and reel or tube so that you can build all your CAD library parts in the same zero rotation to provide your vendors with accurate assembly data.
