Mechanical Drawing?

From the images (top/bottom view) it looks to me like the PicoZed is about the same size as the MicroZed (which I consider a good thing), and even two of the three connectors are in similar places (again something good for migration).

Is there any chance to get a mechanical drawing or at least some measurements and positions for interfacing the board?

Thanks in advance,
Herbert

Here is the relevant section from the PicoZed Carrier Design Guide that will be posted when complete and reviewed:

Great! Exactly what I needed.

One small question though, the schematic shows four 0 ohm resistors between ground plane and mounting holes, doesn't that prevent effective heat dissipation to and thus via the mounting holes?

Thanks in advance,

Here is the response from the design group:

The 0-ohm resistor to ground will limit the amount of heat dissipation available from tying into the ground planes from the mounting holes. What we were concerned with were 3^rd party carriers inducing noise into the ground planes and thus affecting overall EMI radiation on the modules. It was a way for us to remove the mounting holes from the ground and avoid these effects.

Can you repost the drawing as It does is not visible to me. Can you provide a STEP model for theboard assembly and its carrier board?

Try to use either Chrome or Firefox browser to view the drawing. For some reason IE does not display it correctly.

We do plan to post the STEP models but are still working on all of the documentation for release at this point.
