For conventional QFP device, what is the optimun height between lead and pad? 50 microns or 100 microns? What is the factor affecting this height?

Defining the thickness of solder between the lead and the pad, J-001 states "Properly wetted fillet shall be evident." J-001 is available from http://www.ipc.org.

Factors that affect this are: * Amount and composition of solder * Amount and composition of flux * Lead shape, solderability protection, and solderability * Pad flatness, solderability protection, and solderability * Component weight * Reflow profile
