Search the online land pattern library.

The current edition includes a full range of land patterns for SMT users. It is the largest and most up to date library available anywhere. Each with their respective dimensioned land pattern in individual pdf files. The included sections cover the entire breadth of SMT Packages.

By using the LPMS search engine (Land Pattern Management Software) you may locate the specific package and pattern you are looking for. Search parameters include the number of leads, pitch, and package type.

The package mechanicals are dimensioned using nominal dimensions. Maximum dimensions are only used for high reliability packages or for component height.

This extensive library is the result of over 20 years of experience in SMT design and manufacturing by James C. Blankenhorn. This library is the leading source for pattern information in the SMT industry with over 1,200 companies as customers. The library is much more extensive and current than the IPC-SM-782 document with patterns optimised for maximum yields and minimum rework. Table of Contents

We recommend this version of the library for those who would like to have a paperless system running on their network and only print single pages. Annual upgrades to the land pattern library are also available.

Free Pattern Support

Customers who purchase the Professional SMT Component and Land Pattern Library or annual updates are eligible for free patterns for any components not found.

This reference Library is a new concept offering both the critical package information and the correct land pattern for each part on its own page. This easy to use Library is a compilation of approximately 2,500 dimensioned packages and associated land patterns in over 40 sections. Serious designers will find that the Professional SMT Component and Land Pattern Library is a valuable resource for successfully designing SMT.

Author and Subject Matter Expert: James C. Blankenhorn

James C. Blankenhorn is President and founder (1985) of SMT Plus Inc., located in Scotts Valley, CA. His experience in SMT began as VP of Design & Prototyping for AWI, the first SMT subcontract design and assembly firm for SMT from 1983-1985. His work established many of the design guidelines and processes used in the SMT industry today. Mr. Blankenhorn sold the design and assembly operations to and was GM & VP of Design for Jabil Circuit from 1988-1991, setting up multiple design centres and managing prototype assembly. Mr. Blankenhorn returned to SMT Plus to direct its activities. Having identified the growing needs of industry for education, SMT Plus has emerged since 1996 as a leader in the production of advanced multimedia technical training products and development tools for the SMT and telecommunications industries. Prior to his involvement with SMT, Mr. Blankenhorn was a MOS designer for Motorola and TI and product line manager for memory and microprocessors for Honeywell for 8 years. For 3 years thereafter he was involved in start-ups in IC packaging, test and burn-in as General Manager for Test International and VP of Sales for IC Link.

Mr. Blankenhorn is an active member of the SMTA, a cofounder of the SMTA in 1984, recipient of the 1996 Founders Award for Distinguished Service, and served twice as technical chairman for the Silicon Valley SMTA chapter. He is a speaker at conferences world-wide and has authored over twenty books on SMT design, packaging, and processing. He holds a BSEE degree from Arizona State University and is listed in Who’s Who in America.
