Mounting the Guitar
The Guitar was designed for mounting on a printed circuit board (PCB). It is connected by
2 mm pitch 0.51 mm square pins. When designing the Guitar into a device, be sure to leave
about 1 cm (0.4") outward from the heatsink to enable free air convection around the Guitar. We
recommend that the Guitar be soldered directly to the board. Alternatively, though this is not
recommended, the Guitar can be attached to socket connectors mounted on the PCB. If the PCB
is enclosed in a metal chassis, we recommend that the Guitar be screw-mounted to it as well to
help with heat dissipation. The Guitar has screw-mount holes on each corner of the heatsink for
this purpose.
