I'm having good success with 1206 SMD parts & SOIC, but space is *very* tight o my PCB, so I now find myself looking at 16 TSSOP (whose pitch 0.65mm - not sure what that is in old money, something like a 1/4 of the diy friendly .1" pitch) & wondering - is this do-able for a modest home setup (have UV box & bubble etch tank) for someone that that has his eye on getting a small time product out in the marketplace.
I'd be hoping to sell 3-5 units per week, so if I do go TSSOP, it has to be repeatable & trouble free - for example, for anyone doing 0.65mm picth, does stencilling work ok with no bridges etc? (I've yet to try my hand at stencilling, but ovbiously it's the way to go for small runs)
