| Sep 27, 2023 at 11:24 | comment | converted from answer | Stephen Casey | I know this is an old post. But 20mil is NOT 0.5mm. It's 0.508mm. Not a big deal for trace width, maybe. But a real big deal for a 100 pin tqfp with 0.5mm pitch. The error across 25 pins accumulates to 0.2mm. I have just been burned by this - The engineer who created the footprint worked in Imperial units, and also used 20mil=0.5mm | |
