Disclaimer
The Zip file you are about to download is provided for your convenience and contains decals and footprint files obtained from multiple sources.
These files are provided 'AS IS' and with no guarantee that they are complete, free from errors or suitable for use.
Carefully check the imported decals against the latest footprint drawing provided on the Tag-Connect website (see below). In particular pay close attention to the solder paste-mask layer to ensure no solder paste is deposited on the footprint pads. Failure to do so may result in a lumpy solder surface on the pads which may cause an unreliable connection.
In addition, make sure that the PCB FAB tolerances ensure that the finished locating pin holes are a minimum of 0.035".
By downloading and using the following files the user agrees to take full responsibility for checking the accuracy and suitability of the imported footprint.
