Comfortably, drag-and-drop the mating and fixing components referenced to their respective centres to the centre
positions marked in Mechanical 5. Do this carefully to hit the exact coordinates, otherwise an excessive mechanical
stress could be transferred to the Everest CORE when plugged into the Interface board.
Mechanical layer 15: clearances
Considerations about clearances and general layout advice can be found in Mechanical layer 15. Understand the
lines as the limits for component placement outside or below the Everest CORE, in such way that no component
should cross them.
Footprint of mezzanine connectors
Mechanical 5 includes the footprint of the 2 required mating mezzanine connectors. It is not made out of
rectangular shapes representing copper, but actual numbered SM and TH pads. Therefore, to generate a
footprint for the mezzanine connectors, simply copy all the pads from Mechanical layer 5, and paste them
into Top layer in the created footprint. Do not copy the text specifying the pinout, as it would be
considered copper in the Top layer.
