Transistor Case Styles

Yet another set of pages that hold graphic files, in this case they are Transistor packages;
Main link page: IC Packages.
Transistor Metal Can Drawing,
Transistor TO23 Case,
Screw Mount Transistor Case,

IC Socket Drawings

Added a few more pages off the IC Package Definitions page.

SOP IC and Socket graphic,
BGA IC Graphic,
IC DIP Sockets graphic,

and I think one other. These are new pages to hold a graphic or picture file, with little or no text on the topic.

IC Package Drawings

The IC Package Type Definitions page received a few new links to new pages. Some of the links were already there but pointed to a pic file, now they point to a new page that contains the gif file.

JLCC Package;

LCC Package;

PGA Package;

Zig Zag Package;

SIP Package;

The first three are Integrated Circuit packages, while the last two are really passive component packages. In any case the new pages provide a drawing to show what the package looks like.

Definition of Capacitor Terms

There are now thirteen pages that cover the Capactior Dictionary section. Each page now has a link to all the other pages at the top of the page. In addition a few new graphics were added to aid in the defintion of the terms.

Because this section is a dictionary of Capacitor Terms not all letters are covered, but two new pages were added:

The first new page covers 'G' terms; Dictionary of Capacitor Terms, 'G'.

While the second page covers 'P' terms; Dictionary of Capacitor Terms, 'P'.

And another page for 'D' Capacitor definitions.

The definitions came from pages all ready in the section but those pages were runing a bit long. How ever because of other additions made tonight, now other pages are running to long which means that they may be sub-divided into other 'new' pages.

The dictionary pages change more than a few times a year, as more terms are added or new graphics are added, and in some cases obsolete terms are removed.

Some of the 'side' terms are still not listed in the Capacitor section, but they may be found in the Glossary of Engineering Terms section.

Note; 1/28/2010. The links to the capacitor dictionary have been updated in a newer blog posting; Indexed URLs.

Connector Manufacturers

A few new pages have been added over the last week. Tonight I pushed the listing of Manufacturers of Header Connectors onto its own page. The link reside on the main page for Manufacturers of Connectors.

Also off the dictionary section, 'P' Engineering Terms, a new page was added to cover the term, Pulse Shape. and related terms to describe a waveform.

And in the same dictionary section, 'S' Engineering Terms, another new term was added to hold a larger graphic of a Synchro. Same pic that was on the previous page, but a bit larger.
