 		 #131440 - Original SMT parts were modified DIP
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Hi Jan,

Actually, the original SMT "Flat Packs" were based on techs taking a DIP and bending the leads such that it laid flat. J-leads were made by turning the pins of a DIP under (with an appropriate die and press of course). So you can absolutely surface mount parts that were intended for through hole use, assuming, as you say, you are doing prototype work.

   does not make sense, pls explain            01/01/70 00:00      
      100 mils width is too small            01/01/70 00:00      
         Use 8052.com            01/01/70 00:00      
         in one direction, in the other it is .100            01/01/70 00:00      
         Drilling holes with 100 mil pitch should not be...            01/01/70 00:00      
            None at all!            01/01/70 00:00      
            The largest drill diameter is 0.050"            01/01/70 00:00      
               It's all coming back...            01/01/70 00:00      
                  What do you mean "coming back?" It's still here!            01/01/70 00:00

                           there are PLCC sockets that spread the pins to 0.1            01/01/70 00:00      
                              Yep.            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 ok            01/01/70 00:00
