PACKAGE DIMENSIONS
NOTES:
1. Dimensions are in inches.
2. Millimeters are given for information only.
3. These dimensions should be measured at points 0.050 inch (1.27 mm)
+0.005 inch (0.13 mm) -0.000 inch (0.00 mm) below seating plane.
When gauge is not used, measurement will be made at the seating
plane.
4. Two places.
5. The seating plane of the header shall be flat within 0.001 inch (0.03
mm) concave to .004 inch (0.10 mm) convex inside a .930 inch (23.62
mm) diameter circle on the center of the header and flat within .001
inch (0.03 mm) concave to .006 inch (0.15 mm) convex overall.
6. Lead diameter shall not exceed twice LD within L1.
7. Lead number 1 is the emitter, lead 2 is the base, case is the collector.
8. In accordance with ASME Y14.5M, diameters are equivalent to Φx
symbology.
