88 Threads found on edaboard.com: Capacitor Footprint
Dear All:
I need to create a customized 0402 capacitor footprint(SMD) to use in MentorGraphic Expedition. The recommended size from IPC-SM-782A is too large for me. May I know what is the minimum pad size, pad pitch, solder mask, body outline size etc. that I can use?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Anybody got any application note on capacitor selection or an introduction to different type of capacitor ?
Out of the 3 type of dielectric X5R, X7R & CG0 (NP0), which one is the cheapest in term of cost ?
Next, which footprint (0402, 0603, 1210 & etc) is the most common on PCB ?
Thanks a million in advance !
Best Regards

Let's start with drill bit size - that is the size of the drill that the PCB fabricator uses to drill holes in the PCB for mounting holes, vias, and thru-hole pads. They come in standard sizes, so you can't specify just any hole size and expect the fabricator to be able to make it - the hole has to match the available drill sizes.

You selected not to pour over existing ground when you did the polygon pour. The result is isolation of the signal return path on the pour, so it has very little beneficial effect. All you did was float a ground around the existing ground traces.
I suggest that you let the copper pour carry the signal returns between chips instead of forcing

Usually the working limit of a capacitor is SRF (Series Resonant Frequency). Before that point the reactance of the capacitor is pure capacitive, and after SRF the reactance is inductive.
In some particular applications capacitors are used only at SRF where the equivalent impedance is minimum.

For estimating pad capacitance you can just use the parallel-plate capacitor formula. Just add this into your simulation (toggle on and off) to see how much the circuit is affected. As frequencies go higher then this is more of a transmission line effect. To truly capture almost all the effects you must use microwave-design techniques where ever
