Rob,

I was looking at using a similar package on an upcoming design, and am curious on how the footprint works for you. Can you post a follow-up later?

I wanted to experiment adding vias to the layout after placing the footprint, so tenting is preserved in the soldermask on the bottom side.

Cheers,
Ed
