#184409 - despite my relative blindness ... Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Everyone knows by now that I'm pretty long-in-the-tooth, and have to find the right glasses in the morning so I can see well enough to find the right glasses.
Nevertheless, I use 0603's between the pins on my wire-wrap devices because they fit so well between the pads, which allows me to shorten the links to Vcc and Gnd. Yes, I have to inspect with a microscope, but I get few shorts and even fewer "opens" when I use these. There are a couple of sizes smaller than this, but, frankly, I don't even look on the floor when I drop an 0603. I can barely see them on the clear tabletop. RE |
