Module Footprint and Mechanical Data
Figure
8
shows the dimensions of the module footprint on the base board.
Enclustra offers Mercury and Mercury+ modules of various geometries having widths of 56, 64, 65, 72 or
74 mm and having different topologies for the mounting holes. If different module types shall be fixed
on the base board by screws, additional mounting holes may be required to accommodate different
modules. The footprints of the module connectors for the base board design are available for different
PCB design tools ﴾Altium, PADS, Eagle, Orcad﴿ [7] and include the required information on the module
sizes and holes.
The maximum component height under the module is dependent on the connector type. Refer to Sec‐
tion
2.7
for detailed connector information.

Tip
A small golden square on the bottom left corner of the module is provided as landmark. The same
landmark is provided on the Enclustra base boards to help orient the module in the right direction
when connecting it.
NOTICE
Damage to the connectors
The connectors of the module and the base board can be damaged if the con‐
nectors are not properly aligned during installation.
D‐0000‐443‐001
Align the connectors carefully before applying force on the module.
Do not use excessive force to latch the module into the connectors on the
base board.
