&lt;p&gt;I can generate or find a footprint, that isn&amp;#39;t the issue&amp;nbsp; I just want to verify that it is the most optimal / recommended layout to start with so that manufacturability isn&amp;#39;t compromised.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: nRF52840-QFAA Footprint</title><link>https://test-devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/369908?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 30 May 2022 08:37:39 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:025ad15e-b4d2-4d65-b59f-0f9370d5e385</guid><dc:creator>ketiljo</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Not specifically for the QFN48m, only for the aQFN&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/nan_040/APP/nan_040/nan40_intro.html"&gt;https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/nan_040/APP/nan_040/nan40_intro.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The QFN48 should be straight forward to generate with your PCB software tool.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
