Hey Logan, This is an excellent resourse and should have pretty much everything you need. http://www.national.com/packaging/parts/MDIP.html#8 You get a list of a lot of different components and their pictures. You can view their dimensions and look

1) I am not aware of anyone making a snap on plastic housing either. 2) How can components short the connector? Are they dead shorts (components touching). If so, means bad design! 3) Could try some RTV compounds instead of kapton tape. However u wil

Hi AJ, Change ALL 12 of the 1.0mm to 0.7mm. The CP 4 can only set nozzle size for S M and L not some of the 12 but all 12. 0402 usually come in 8 x 2 mm tape so you need 8 x 2 feeders or you will waste 1 component for every component you use. T

Does anyone have an easy way to estimate how much solder paste is applied to a smt pcb? I understand it varies on squeegee pressure, stencil thickness, and pitch of the components but I was looking for an average. I would assume that somewhere out th

We're in the process of purchasing a couple new reflow ovens. The ovens that we're looking at have a standard clearance of 1.00"(25.4mm), when using the Edge Rail Conveyor. We can pay a few bucks extra in increase that to 1.5" (38.1mm). I think that

I would like an interpretation of a solder fillet on a 5 side termination cap. (Ref: IPC-610, sec. 8.2.2.6). My question pertains to the definition of dimension F, and what constitutes the top of the fillet. Does the top of the fillet end at where
