Altitude 58 Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Nice. Dual footprints for the tacts please... Quote Link to comment
latigid on 270 Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share I can try, what's your preference? Anything but TL1100, they go dodgy after a few years. See here also: Quote Link to comment
Altitude 58 Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share The 6mm ones are fine, same as the orginal except with the correct footprint. Lots of options there Quote Link to comment
latigid on 270 Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share 6mm ones with pin spacing of 6.5/4.5mm? Not sure if the fab will like the overlapping drill hits... Do you have an example layout or know of a board house that will do them? Quote Link to comment
Altitude 58 Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) Report Share You know, dont even bother.. Those look like C&K D6R90 which are a buck each anyway Edited April 7, 2016 by Altitude Quote Link to comment
latigid on 270 Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) Report Share Sadly no difference as the D6 pads are on square. I've got something workable just moving the other switch up 1.5 1.6mm, should be fine! Edited April 7, 2016 by latigid on Quote Link to comment
Altitude 58 Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share like I said, dont bother. Those switches are a good choice and there really isnt anything to be gained here with multiple footprints. Looks at smashes SEQV4 CS board for a perfect example of multiple footprints for one switch Quote Link to comment
latigid on 270 Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) Report Share It works with some creative pad arranging! But I agree, the D6 buttons are pretty good (I gave a few reasons in the V4L thread). In saying that they are quite tall (better for raised front panels though) and do have a bit of slop when pressed, so another option's not a bad thing.
