im designing a circuit that will require the use of a edge connector so it can connect to another circuit. i need to do this so i can get both micro controllers communicating i have done a bit of research and am thinking about using a pcb manufact

Assuming agressive design rules what is the minimum distance I can get away with between the board edge and a SMT pad and between the board edge and a plated mounting hole ??? (The board is only 1"x2" and the mounting holes are 80 mil dia, 125 mil

First, look here [http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/snva500/snva500.pdf ] This is the actual pdf from TI, not some cheap-ass reproduction, like the link you gave us. Orange polygons [and other shapes] - copper covered with ENIG * On the edge of the board, bo

Where are the shorts occurring on the 96 pin connector? Are they consistently in the same areas? It looks as though there are a number of pins connected by traces on the board, and/or the ground plane. This would cause a lot of repeatable shorts i

Dummy pads can work well on through hole parts and are often used in the Far East and on IBM products. If you take a VCR or TV board you will often see this trick being used. Alternativly you can stagger the pads at the trailing edge that works well.

I want to place a connector near the edge of a PCB using a Panasonic Pick and Place machine. One-third of the connector (the part with the smd pads) sits on the PCB, while the remaining portion hangs off the edge. When the connector isn't seated prop
