2012-07-19 01:35 <cladamw> wpwrak, yes, i saw them. Also thanks for fixes directly. :-)
2012-07-19 01:36 <wpwrak> i hope i didn't break anything :)
2012-07-19 01:36 <wpwrak> regarding the through-hole-pads, do you agree that there should never be solder paste on them ?

2012-07-19 01:52 <xiangfu> but do those jobs from 0 is not easy. why the C/R is here. why there is a ferrite_chip etc.
2012-07-19 01:54 <cladamw> wpwrak, the solder paste layer on PTH hole can be kept there once. Since stencil maker they identify/determine automatically which PTH with solder paste or be noticed by our demands. Considerations or comments from you are good though.
2012-07-19 01:58 <cladamw> wpwrak, in eastern stencil maker, when they see gerber, the PTHs will directly be disable by s/w. We don't need to take care of them. It's more like a common condition to speed up process. But good comments from you. so no feedback to you on thread. :-)

2012-07-19 02:14 <wpwrak> xiangfu: yeah, the whole workflow is a little tricky ;-)
2012-07-19 02:14 <wpwrak> cladamw: hmm. i don't like the idea of relying on the fab to fix our gerbers for us :)
2012-07-19 02:15 <cladamw> wpwrak, sure. :-) as better work flow in Qi is good on own rules. :-)
2012-07-19 02:16 <wpwrak> cladamw: i wonder in what cases you'd want to have solder paste on TH pads. it seems to me that the default should be no solder paste, agreed ?
2012-07-19 02:20 <wpwrak> cladamw: in pads.fpd, the round ones are "bare" while the square and rectangular ones are with solder paste. shall i make them all bare ?
2012-07-19 02:22 <cladamw> you could do so. I've been requested twice when did 19" chassis(frame) stack up to hook main boards with PTH(3.5mm diameters) with extra 8 small PTH surrounded 3.5mm PTH, then used solder paste to cover both, to solve system ground issues. the solder paste there for purposes are for adding strength on contacts of current flow and strengthen mechanical tolerances.
2012-07-19 02:22 <cladamw> wpwrak, yes, you can make them all bare. :)
2012-07-19 02:23 <xiangfu> wpwrak, where is the information indicate if there are solder or bare?
2012-07-19 02:23 jluis has joined #qi-hardware
2012-07-19 02:23 <wpwrak> xiangfu: in fped, it's in the color of the pad. and when you select the pad, there's a clickable field in the input area that says "normal", "bare", etc.
2012-07-19 02:25 <wpwrak> xiangfu: if you make postscript, different pad types are drawn in different styles. and the very latest version of the catalog even tells you what is what :-) http://downloads.qi-hardware.com/people/werner/tmp/kicad-libs-modules.pdf
2012-07-19 02:25 <wpwrak> xiangfu: (upload just finished :)
2012-07-19 02:26 <wpwrak> cladamw: (chassis) okay, that sounds exotic enough that you may even want to make a special footprint for that case :)

2012-07-19 02:27 <xiangfu> wpwrak, got it. thanks.
2012-07-19 02:27 <wpwrak> cladamw: so i guess it's safe to make all the TH pads bare
2012-07-19 02:28 <wpwrak> cladamw: (EMC) i'm not sure that process is actually reliable :)
2012-07-19 02:31 <wpwrak> xiangfu: most of the footprints are quite boring. things get more interesting when you go to QFN parts, with solder paste islands
2012-07-19 02:32 <wpwrak> BGAs get solder paste, right ? or are the balls already enough and the pads are bare ?
2012-07-19 02:34 <xiangfu> wpwrak, QFN, no 'foot' but only 'footprint' :-)

2012-07-19 02:51 <wpwrak> cladamw: what do we do with parts that have TH and SMT ? e.g., usb_a_plug_smt.fpd
2012-07-19 02:51 <wpwrak> cladamw: solder paste everywhere ? solder paste only on the SMT pads ?
2012-07-19 02:55 <cladamw> wpwrak, pad[1::4](SMT) with solder paste, the other two pad[5::6](TH) are not necessary. :-)
2012-07-19 02:57 <wpwrak> atusb has that critter ... it actually looks as if they soldered the whole connector manually :)
2012-07-19 02:57 <cladamw> but like i said, if you make all 6 pads with solder paste, it won't be trouble when making stencil. :-) but if we want to define well. then we define rule for pad[5::6] :-)
2012-07-19 02:59 <cladamw> yes, i saw atusb samples here are mostly like human soldering not to use a through hole reflow machine. :-)
2012-07-19 02:59 <wpwrak> yeah, that connector is a tricky beast. it gave us a bit of headache. if you include it in the SMT process, you may as well have solder paste on all pads, including the TH ones.
2012-07-19 02:59 <wpwrak> however, if you do it manually, you wouldn't want solder paste in the holes ...
2012-07-19 03:00 <wpwrak> for atusb, that made a lot of sense. it's just one silly little component anyway. nothing like the TH orgy that M1 is ;-)
2012-07-19 03:01 <cladamw> wpwrak, sure, one won't make/face a hole (aperture) as solder paste. but for speeding up process in manufacturer, stencil maker works for it. :-)
2012-07-19 03:07 <wpwrak> very well. transformed :)

2012-07-19 03:18 <wpwrak> yeah, i think kicad's module editor implicitly makes pads with a hole "bare". so you couldn't run into this specific problem.

2012-07-19 12:33 <whitequark> oh, not exactly
2012-07-19 12:34 <whitequark> prior to the law which has passed, sites sometimes were closed, but that was rare, exceptional, and had nothing to do with ISPs/registrars
2012-07-19 12:34 <wpwrak> ah, i see. you're still not allowed to admit that you weren't allowed to talk about such things in the past :)
2012-07-19 12:34 <whitequark> now this is common, and ISPs/registrars must oblige and have a requirement for filtering hw.
2012-07-19 12:34 <whitequark> lol

2012-07-19 12:35 <whitequark> wpwrak: more like a visit from copyright holders
2012-07-19 12:35 <whitequark> it was the single most common reason
2012-07-19 12:36 <whitequark> there were only few cases of politics-related stuff removal, and, well, with the Streisand effect that wasn't effective anyway.
2012-07-19 12:37 <whitequark> e.g. there were one or two blogs removed from livejournal.com, and frankly nobody actually knew about them before
2012-07-19 12:37 <whitequark> but yeah, stopping delegation of russian thepiratebay has caused some resonance
2012-07-19 12:37 <whitequark> in a ~day it migrated to .org domain.
2012-07-19 12:37 <whitequark> well, what could you expect from a country where a nationwide social network Vkontakte basically hosts the biggest archive of pirated material.

2012-07-19 16:29 <wolfspraul> larsc: I can't see it anymore, do you have a server where it's still there?
2012-07-19 16:29 <wolfspraul> it used to be some java-based thing
2012-07-19 16:29 <wpwrak> a few MCUs, an some minor stuff (FETs, caps, LEDs)
2012-07-19 16:29 <kristianpaul> no fgpas? :)
2012-07-19 16:30 <kristianpaul> btw you ordered using bom tools?
2012-07-19 16:30 <wpwrak> MCUs: this time ATtiny167 and LPC1112. didn't have these in my collection yet.
2012-07-19 16:30 <wpwrak> (fpgas) naw, way too expensive for what i need
2012-07-19 16:31 <wpwrak> (boom) no, just manually. don't even have the circuit for those parts yet :)
2012-07-19 16:32 <larsc> wolfspraul: I'll check when I'm back home, don't have my login credentials with me
2012-07-19 16:32 <larsc> wolfspraul: well and if I manage to resurect my laptop which has them
2012-07-19 16:33 <wolfspraul> no stress
2012-07-19 16:33 <wolfspraul> maybe it's only for virtual servers, but this is a physical one
2012-07-19 16:34 <wolfspraul> but too bad the machine doesn't come back up right now
2012-07-19 16:34 <larsc> got a replacement fan today, I ordered a 04W0407 and got a 04W0409, hopefully it will work as well
2012-07-19 16:34 <wolfspraul> I think I first wait a little longer, the fsck will hopefully not get stuck and should come out after 30-40 minutes I think
2012-07-19 16:35 <kristianpaul> that usually happen yes (fsck)
2012-07-19 16:35 <wolfspraul> I could try to boot into the rescue system but I'm kinda lazy and hope that the old machine will just come back and don't want to touch/break it...

2012-07-19 17:08 freemor has left #qi-hardware [#qi-hardware]
2012-07-19 17:08 <wpwrak> larsc: you can also have a dsv repository at each level in your directory hierarchy. e.g., you could have one for /home/qi-hw/my-project/ and one for /home/qi-hw/
2012-07-19 17:09 <wpwrak> larsc: a search crawls towards root until it finds something that matches
2012-07-19 17:09 <larsc> awsome
2012-07-19 17:10 <wpwrak> and all in less than 200 lines of shell ;-)

2012-07-19 18:15 <wolfspraul> the machine is running again, but there are a number of corruptions in the rootfs of the virtual machine now

2012-07-19 18:32 <rjeffries> kristianpaul that's rather cool. price is crazy low as well. ;)
2012-07-19 18:33 <rjeffries> If anyone is interested (I doubt it in this venue) my Raspberry Pi arrived about a week ago. Works ok/fine, especially with new Raspbian flavor of Debian

2012-07-19 19:21 <wpwrak> hellekin: (free chips) sounds like fun :) what chips do you have in mind ?
2012-07-19 19:22 <wpwrak> wolfspraul: (rootfs corruption) oh joy ...
2012-07-19 19:40 <kristianpaul> :-|
2012-07-19 19:45 <viric> let me guess about the rootfs corruption... ext3?
2012-07-19 19:45 <viric> :)
2012-07-19 19:46 <viric> wpwrak: what is that dsv?
2012-07-19 19:47 <wpwrak> viric: it's a shell script that parses a file that tells it where PDFs (typically of data sheets) are, downloads and caches them, and lets you invoke a PDF viewer (xpdf, etc.) on them with a short command.
2012-07-19 19:48 <wpwrak> viric: e.g., in the example i posted to the list, you'd invoke xpdf on the USB 2.0 spec with "dsv usb20"
2012-07-19 19:48 <wpwrak> viric: since the file is cached, it's fast and you don't have to worry about network issues or the source having moved/disappeared

2012-07-19 19:49 <wpwrak> (that is, after you've obtained your initial copy)
2012-07-19 19:50 <larsc> no it's not so awsome anymore ;)
2012-07-19 19:56 <wpwrak> larsc: hmm ?
2012-07-19 20:01 <viric> ahh ok
2012-07-19 20:01 <larsc> I'd prefer if I would not have to worry about the file disappearing, even without obtaining a inital copy
2012-07-19 20:02 <larsc> that would be a killer feature
2012-07-19 20:06 <wpwrak> larsc: well, the problem is that we can't legally share most of the data sheets ...
2012-07-19 20:07 <larsc> wpwrak: i was trying to make a joke, but obviously failed ;)
2012-07-19 20:07 <wpwrak> larsc: ... but of course, if someone's cache (or items from it) would somehow end up at a place you can access, dsv would be more than willing to worth with that
2012-07-19 20:07 <wpwrak> larsc: naw, you actually hit one of the reasons why i wrote dsv ;-)

2012-07-19 20:09 <larsc> I want to use it, because I have this bad habbit of just entering the part name into google and end up with datasheet.pdf datasheet(1).pdf datasheet(2).pdf ... in my downloads folder

2012-07-19 20:11 <viric> I know that habit
2012-07-19 20:12 <viric> with the difference of.. who needs a download folder?
2012-07-19 20:15 <larsc> I do
2012-07-19 20:18 <wpwrak> i hate download folders. either it's something that's totally ephemeral or it's something that already has a well-defined home somewhere in my file system. i want it to be exactly there, not in $HOME or some obscure choice of the browser.
2012-07-19 20:19 <wpwrak> i.e., what i want is a nice wget-able URL. i'll take care of the rest. and yes, paraphrasing Linus: fuck you, sourceforge, fuck you !
2012-07-19 20:22 <larsc> well, at least you don't have to install a download client
2012-07-19 20:24 <wpwrak> yeah, what the world needs is a "1N4148 DATA SHEET APP" ;-) (ideally with mandatory registration and that installs itself such that it's always somewhere on the screen)
2012-07-19 20:25 <wpwrak> (1N4148) as an example of a rather trivial and very common diode
