ILM Back Plate Design Overview
The back plate consists of a flat steel back plate with threaded studs to attach to the
ILM frame. A clearance hole is located at the center of the plate to allow access to test
points and backside capacitors. Two additional cut-outs on the backplate provide
clearance for backside voltage regulator components. An insulator is pre applied by the
vendor to the side with the threaded studs.
Note:
The ILM Back Plate is designed to work with board thicknesses from 0.062 inches to
0.100 inches. If the board is outside of this range, the backplate will require
modification.
