Could someone who's used 0508 and/or 0306 sized capacitors comment on whether
or not you had any particular difficulties in manufacturing relative to the
use of 0805s and 0603s? Our contact at our current contract manufacturer
initially said he'd never _heard_ of 0306's and, after talking to some of his
guys, said that, yes, they had used them, but sometimes ended up having to
laser trim the footprints (presumably so as to avoid solder bridging between
the pads or part misalignment or somesuch). I'm curious as to whether this is
a real problem with reverseaspect ratio parts, or if it's a lot of FUD on
their part... I'm really surprised that there's been so much resistance to
using the things!

Thanks,
