Hi;

I see that most threads are related to professional activities, this question is related to my new hobby.

I am putting together an audio amplifier based on a national SMT IC (LM3886, TO-220 11 pin package) with pin pitch of 1.702mm. How can I find reference material describing the applicable mounting hardware, I don't find any circuit boards in the digi-key catalog with a matching pitch for the wholes.

I am happy for any advice anybody on this message board might have.

Jan

Look here http://www.national.com/pf/LM/LM3886.html

Consider using a perf board. A perf board looks like this http://home1.pacific.net.sg/~fung/circuit.html. Here�s how to use perf boards http://www.reprise.com/host/circuits/perfboard.asp. You can buy perf boards at: * http://www.allelectronics.com/cgi-bin/category.cgi?category=455&type=store * http://www.hosfelt.com/Enclosures/enclosure1.htm * http://www.winfordeng.com/products/

Do a net search on: * electronic prototype * prototype board * perf board * ... etc
