1. A 0.80mm pitch TSOP? If I have the math right, 0.80 pitch = 31.4 mil. Pin width = 0.375mm, = 14.7 mil. So the clearance between pins is pinPitch - pinWidth, = 31.4 - 14.7 = 16.7 mil Assuming equal line/space, I can fit a maximum trace of 16.7 / 3 = 5.5mil That assumes my pads are precisely

Gene, For a 0.8 mm (31.5 mill) pitch device if half the space is for the pad (16 mills) that leaves (15.5 mills) space between the pads. This is plenty of room to put a 6 mill width trace through. For a 0.5 mm (19.7 mill) pitch device if half the space is for the pad (10 mills) that leaves (9.7
