And pin outs of both. Once I saw a SOT-6 replaced with a miniSOT-6 (IIRC) The pin outs of the two parts were different. We did make an adaptor board and it wasn't too bad. We populated a panel of the adaptor boards, depanelized them and put them in t

We are an OEM manufacturer, and are beginning to look at how we will be affected by the ROHS and WEEE directives. As of now we have many questions, and few answers. Does anyone know of a good comprehensive source where one could get information on:

Assuming the traces run parallel and perpendicular to each other, I'd choose one direction the traces run as "x" and the other direction for "y." Then I'd pick a unique identifier on the board to insure proper orientation. Next, I'd measure warp and
