Etch Guard "home base" aperture design is for both chemical-etch and laser-cut stencils. This feature is said to redesign the shape of the pad for chip components to prevent solder balling and spreading for SMT assemblers using no-clean solder paste. Etch Guard software redesigns the pads in such a way that solder will not spread outside the pad area.
