RE: [N8VEM-S100:7726] TO-3 footprint needed



Thanks again, John.

It was suggested by others that I pull the TO-3 footprint from another project, like those on the N8VEM-S100 web site.  I’ll look into that, especially the link you provided below.  I want to do exactly what I have seen you do, that is include the Pololu regulator stacked on top of a TO-3 regulator.  Further, I found another 5V switching regulator from EZSBC called the PSU5, and LM323K replacement.  (http://www.ezsbc.com/index.php/featured-products-list-home-page/psu5.html#.VgK07Jce3s5).  This gives me three regulator options: Standard LM323K, EZSBC PSU5 (fits in the TO-3 space, but without a heatsink) and the Pololu part.  I am looking for the TO-3 footprint only because I don’t have good mechanicals on the TO-3 part in order to make my own.

 

BTW, the link to the S-100 appears to only have 62 pins, and they are on 0.1” centers, not 0.125”.

Bob go to the bottom of this page:-

http://s100computers.com/My%20System%20Pages/80386%20Board/80386%20CPU%20Board.htm

 

The KICAD .zip file contains a footprint for a LM323  (a TO-3 5V regulator).  These days I overlay a TO-3 on top of a Pololu regulator. No extra space, more options. 

I sent you a link yesterday for the S100 connector.

Good morning group,

 

I have been searching now for ½ hour and cannot find a footprint in the KiCAD v4 library for a TO-3 case semiconductor (typical LM323K).

Is it actually there, and I keep missing it?  If so, please point it out to me.

If it isn’t there, do you have a footprint for TO-3 that you would be willing to share?

 

Also, a few days ago I posted a message in regards to an S-100 edge fingers footprint (not the edge connector, but the component that creates the edge fingers on the board).

I got one response, but it didn’t work.  Is there anyone else with a confirmed functional S-100 edge fingers footprint they would be willing to share?

 

Thanks for your help!

 

Bob Bell
