ERF Variable

Description

v_ball_inset_ratio

When compensating by adding balls to the corners to the corners of the SMD pads, this variable determines the inset of the location of the ball in the SMD pad. The value is given as a fraction of the size of the compensation, i.e. the radius of the ball.

A value of 0 will place the ball exactly on the corner, giving a Mickey Mouse effect. A value of 0.7071 (square root of 0.5) will leave the corner of the SMD touching the ball.

A value of 1 will leave the ball entirely inside the rectangle of the SMD.
