Designing PCB Mounting for Versatile Applications
Are you looking to replicate the mounting style of the HopeRF module for your project? Unsure of the terminology for this design approach? No worries, let’s dive in!
The concept involves giving users the flexibility to solder standard 2.54mm pitch pins for through-hole breadboard use or opt for SMD footprints on a PCB by soldering it down using the half-round plated edge holes.
If you’ve explored adding a second row of holes to the edge, thinking about panelizing the board with a v-groove in between, you’re on the right track. But how do you best design and specify this for manufacturing?
