Since you all have been so helpful with my traces to land pattern dilemma, I'm going to post another question. I am responsible for establishing a list of all information we, as board designers, need before we start laying a board out. Outside of a schematic, board outline, max voltage and current load, what else can you suggest I add to my list? I think it'll be broken down into two categories. One is the minimum information needed; the second list is the optimum (not that I plan on getting that very often). Getting information is like pulling teeth so *maybe* if we have a checklist we can pull all of those teeth in one visit. :-) Thank you! JoAnn L. Amerson Design Librarian Red Lion Controls, Inc.
