Q:
I would like to mount the ADIS16334 in a "connector-down" configuration, but was wondering if you had any further information on the mounting bracket (ADIS1633X/BRACKET), which is in application note AN-1146?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A:
We designed and built a small quantity of the ADIS1633X/BRACKET to validate the connector-down mounting system, which you see in AN-1146. This prototype production run accomplished the goal of validating the concept and design on a small number of units, as the brackets fit nicely over the package bottom. The remaining units from this build are now in stock and are available on a limited basis, while supplies last. To request access to them to discuss options for longer-term production support, please send me a private message with your full contact information (name, position, title, company, address, phone, email). For those who would like to design their own brackets and use 3-D design tools, the attachment in this post contains a STEP model file for the bracket. I hope that helps!
Best regards,
