Tray (JEDEC)

Matrix tray for fine-pitch and large ICs — QFP, QFN, BGA.

Standard JEDEC matrix tray
Machine feeding Yes — automated feeder
Also known as JEDEC tray, matrix tray, waffle pack

A JEDEC matrix tray is a molded tray with a grid of pockets that hold fine-pitch or large ICs (QFP, QFN, BGA, connectors) flat and protected. Each part keeps a known row/column orientation the machine indexes, and delicate leads or BGA balls are shielded better than in tape.

On the machine

Needs a tray feeder or manual tray station; protects leads and balls but holds fewer parts than a reel.
