Hi all, with all these design rules being flashed accross the net I was wondering if anyone wouldn't mind sending me a copy of them. As apart from those that I keep in my head I dont actually have any written down & I can see that I am going to have to produce some for when my employers actually take on another PCB draughtsman. It would be a good starting point . We use either conventional through hole components & wave/hand soldering or smt components with reflow soldering. Thanks ....
