XQFN - Extremely Thin Quad Flat No Leads

                                                  

The Extremely Thin Quad Flat No Leads package, or XQFN, is a very small and extremely thin square-shaped or rectangular surface-mount plastic package with no leads.  Instead of leads, it uses metal pads around the periphery of the package body for electrical connection to the outside world.  It is basically a thinner version of the ultra thin quad flat no leads (UTQFN) package.

  

The body thickness of XQFN packages typically has a maximum value of 0.40 mm. The pad pitch (distance between pads) used by XQFN packages varies from 0.35 mm to 0.5 mm.
