nILS Posted December 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Doug has the list somewhere :-)(All measurements in mil. Center of component/hole)pcb size: 8800x1925mount holes: 150x850 8650x850 150x1775 6850x1775 4590x1000usb socket (x): 450midi sockets (x): 1200 2000 2800 3600 4400 5200 6000 6800 7600 8400[/code] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasha Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Thank you Nils, but I don`t have a idea what dimensiionsare you talking about. ??? PCB size 8800x1925? mil. as short of millimeter?As I see you cannot publish the vector, can you wright me the dimensions I marked with letters and I`ll draw and publish the EPS?

nILS Posted December 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Um... Sasha... mil == 1/1000th inch. The board size is accordingly 8.8x1.925 inches. Got the concenpt? Good. All positions I listed are the centers of the components/holes with the origin being the bottom left corner. 150x850 for instance means that there's a hole at 0.15 inches from the left, 0.85 inches from the bottom. BTW - (150|850) is a vector ;-) I *could* publish a neat vector graphic I just don't see the necessity to do so as the dimensions are all you need to draw one yourself.

Sasha Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 OK Nils thanks for explanation. All clear. ;)Doug, we are not all `mercans here. When have to, I deal with Inches, in decimal. Never used mils in my life and I have never even heard about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juel Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 That's good to know. Never heard about mil before, but I had a hard time findinga casing for a 8.800x1.925 meter board ;). I wonder what the HC18/U footprint of thecrystal means. I can only find HC49/4H in my regular shops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nILS Posted December 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Both will work. The HC18 and HC49 package only differ in how they are being created/put together. HC18 means the two parts of the package are soldered together while the HC49 package is welded using electricity (terminology?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAncientOne Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Um... Sasha... mil == 1/1000th inch. This is as opposed to the military measure of angle: which is wonderfully rounded up by NATO to 6400 mils in a circle, and the old eastern block armies who rounded down to 6000. I's supposed to make your gunnery calculations easier!Even when I was working in inches, when I did machining work as a youngster, we never used mils as a term in the UK. We always used the term "Thou" short for "thousandths of an inch" Perhaps I'll give my next layout terms in microfurlongs.Still, it does make more sense to me than having pins spacings set out in 2.54mm rather than 1/10"(and before anybody starts - I do know the English have some of the wierdest measurements, like Fathoms, rods, poles, perches and chains)Asaf might have a precedent for dimensioning his next box in cubits.....Any other wonderful measurement systems out there?

stryd_one Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 You could measure it in Cun ;)Good for finding pressure points on your synths. Probably no good for laser cutting.Edit: Oh crap I can't split posts in here. nILS you should be able to, it's your thread :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasha Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 One more question... in order to position the sockets perfectly in center of openings using standard spacers I`d like to know in what the thickness PCB will be manufactured? Please, don`t answer standard thickness. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
