Land pattern check: RC0402FR-0733KL

The footprint on this page is KiCad's standard library footprint Resistor_SMD:R_0402_1005Metric, renamed to R_0402_1005Metric_RC0402FR-0733KL so it can sit beside other parts in one library folder. The copper is unchanged. This page compares those pads with the land pattern YAGEO recommends for reflow soldering.

KiCad pads over YAGEO's land, true scale

Grey is the part body at its datasheet nominal size, teal is the KiCad copper and the dashed amber outline is YAGEO's recommended land at its printed nominal size.

Numbers

Dimension KiCad footprint YAGEO recommendation Difference
gap between lands 0.48 mm 0.50 mm -0.02 mm
land length 0.54 mm 0.50 mm +0.04 mm
land width 0.64 mm 0.60 mm +0.04 mm
overall length 1.56 mm 1.50 mm +0.06 mm

YAGEO's letters: A = overall length, B = gap between lands, C = land length, D = land width (YAGEO letters). YAGEO's placement accuracy for this size: +/-0.15 mm.

Result

The KiCad pads are within 0.06 mm of every YAGEO value (YAGEO prints nominal values only, with a placement accuracy of +/-0.15 mm), so the footprint matches the maker's pattern for practical purposes.

KiCad pad centres are at +/-0.510 mm, pad size 0.54 x 0.64 mm, rounded rectangle (corner ratio 0.25). The numbers are in land-check.json; the drawing is made by provenance/tools/landcheck.py from the footprint file and YAGEO's table.
