Wilba Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 Crystal mounting pads? I didn't know there was such a thing.If anyone reads about this and thinks they really need "crystal mounting pads", you can use a tiny piece of card to hold the crystal off the PCB while you solder it, or if you really want to get fancy, make a "crystal mounting pad" out of cardboard.

TheAncientOne Posted October 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 Crystal mounting pads? I didn't know there was such a thing.Standard on certain types of board, to insulate via's and provide a little bit of stand-off. As you can see, they're not exactly expnsive - unlike the mounting stand-offs for LED, which can cost more than the LED.Crystal pads at RapidThere is a whole range of this type of hardware - the military nearly always had their transistors on pads. If you're using old fashioned TO5 cans these can stop a mechanical shock detaching the track on single sided boards. I used to fit them to some makes of light dimmer pack for on the road use, cut down on repair bills a lot. These are free to those that want them, (and I'm posting a box to), whilst I have stock. Anyone else needs to send me an SAE.On a similar note, I've realised that I can give 4 people a bag of sixteen of those mylar 22n caps. Same rules.

julienvoirin Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 those mylar 22n capshey i am interested, but i only need 12 caps, i already have the 4 others. Very nice from you.BTW i have used the Wilba cardboard technique and it works very well. Another hack is to use a very small piece of adhesive rubber on the diode print (which contains the metallic hole), then solder as usual.

TheAncientOne Posted October 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 @OpKodYes - I've ended up with a couple of spares, due to something of mine not being a practical fit into one.Shall I invoice you?Your first one is on the way - and posting 2 together makes only a few cents difference to the price anyway.

TheAncientOne Posted November 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 No it's a metal loaded epoxy designed for glueing metals. It's what Wilba recommends for fixing the screw heads to the panel back.Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
