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.
