      • Are there any USB Type-C connectors rated for the 48V yet?

        • Stretching Stainless Stencils? PART 2

        • Continuation of last weeks topic
        • Ended up being that ⅓ of the panels had poor copper registration from the PCB manufacturer

          • Parts ordered from Mouser
          • Drop in Mosfets to replace TIP 102 and TIP 107?

                  • Part placement
                  • Edge is the wrong place to put parts for many many reasons
                  • Leave room for fiducials
                  • Provide a Stackup - we are regularly asked for that
                  • File naming - use a common naming system or provide info on which files are which
                  • Do no provide every layer your EDA tool exports, some are blank!
                    • ...more
