TIDM-BUCKBOOST-BIDIR: pick & place file

Part Number: TIDM-BUCKBOOST-BIDIR
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE

Hi, 

We would like to assemble the TIDM-BUCKBOOST-BIDIR board with our automatic placement machine. In order to do so, we need a pick&place (coordinate) file for this board. It does not seem to be a part of the available documentation. Can it be provided for us?

Thanks.

  • Hi Steven,

    I am checking with the designer who developed this solution. He will get back to you soon.

  • Steven,

    This design was done in PADS, I no longer have the software available to me i.e. have access to PADS.

    What few people have done is, 

    1. We do release the source of the files in PADS  

    C:\ti\controlSUITE\development_kits\TIDM_BUCKBOOST_BIDIR\v1_00_00_00\~HWDevPkg\R1D

     if you have access to PADS you can generate those files. 

    2. You can import these files into a tool of your choosing, i.e. like altium ? and generate those files. 

    I have had people do both the methods (not specifically for the pick and place file, but for a variety of other reasons).

    I am providing the pick and place using method 2 below.. however there is a degree of exploration as the design was not done in alitum, which you will have to check ..
