Q4 orientation in Hardware 2.0 #119

Closed Helmi closed 1 year ago

Helmi commented 1 year ago

I just ordered with JLCPCB this morning and similar to #42 and #106 their engineers are getting back to me regarding Q4 orientation.

They don't suggest to change it but ask to confirm it. Not being the hardware professional myself I'm unsure about that.

Can anyone help confirming the orientation with the collector down and emitter up in HW2?

Hi @Helmi,

Please refer to the Wiki.

Helmi commented 1 year ago

Hmm but the wiki refers to Hardware 1.2 only, or did I miss something? If the footprint dot is still the valid reference I'd suggest updating the headline so this is clearly also valid for HW 2.0.

Yes, the dot is still the reference. Updated it.
