@ebastler I also use Eagle 7 (stayed with 7.2 -- didn't like some of the gadgets in later versions). Recently, I was designing a FFC 0.5 mm pitch connector footprint and wanted to keep the solder mask back from a larger area than I wanted for the cream. That worked fine. The stencil and PCB's confirm it. It was done in the library. Here is a link to a current procedure from Autodesk: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/eagle-forum/how-to-prevent-aperture-in-stencil-screen/td-p/8431381 I don't remember whether that is what I did, as in my case the mounting pads were not connected to signal. If it is of interest to try what I did, I will dig it out and post some pictures. Alternatively, if you have the part number for something with BGA in the 7.x library, I will pull it up and give it a play. |
