[sdiy] Pet Peeves

[Roman]

Or if they make datasheet WITHOUT case drawing/dimensions. It's sometimes 10 pages PDF but no, you can't fit in there one page for drawing. They only mention SC-793 or something and say "if you're interested in package dimensions, please try to find them documented somewhere on our webpage, ha ha, good luck".

I guess they assume you've read all the earlier ones on the  same type of device written by companies that published actual data  books.

Still  it would nice to have it on the sheet.   --tr    On 5/4/2018 11:11 AM, Dave Magnuson wrote:  Now, how could that *possibly* be important.   Sheesh.   That's a pretty big omission   -----Original Message-----  From: Synth-diy <  synth-diy-bounces at synth-diy.or > On Behalf Of Tim  Ressel  Sent: Friday, May 4, 2018 1:55 PM  To: SYNTH DIY <  synth-diy at synth-diy.org >  Subject: [sdiy] Pet Peeves   Who's up for a Friday rant?   My pet peeve this morning: incomplete data sheets. I'm looking at the  Lite-On LTP-3862 and nowhere does it relate the segment names on the  pins to  the segments on the display.   -- --Tim Ressel  Circuit Abbey   timr at circuitabbey.com   ______________________________  Synth-diy mailing list   Synth-diy at synth-diy.org  synth-diy.org synth-diy.org   ______________________________  Synth-diy mailing list   Synth-diy at synth-diy.org  synth-diy.org synth-diy.org    ______________________________  Synth-diy mailing list   Synth-diy at synth-diy.org  synth-diy.org synth-diy.org  ______________________________  Synth-diy mailing list   Synth-diy at synth-diy.org  synth-diy.org synth-diy.org
