John,
The board to board spacing needs to be at least 5/8 inch (0.625’’).
You need to look out for jumpers P11, P42, and JP11 between the boards, and
also maybe the voltage regulator heat sink fins (SMB V01, V02).
Will all the signals line up one-to-one if you go straight up from the SMB
board, and straight down from the Display board?
I have attached a 3M connector data sheet I got from Mouser.com. It gives
you 0.425’’ height.
I am replying to the N8VEM community also because someone might have
already done this or might have a similar idea.
Regards,
Rick Bromagem
Rick, On the SMB BOMs it seems that the BOM is for a cable-connected daughter board, since both the shrouded and the unshrouded 26-pin connectors are male. I have searched Jameco up and down but have been unable to find a female 26-pin PCB-mounted plug. Could you point me to the proper 26-pin connectors for mounting the daughter board directly to the main board? The BOMs are appreciated! Thanks! JohnP |
