Other manufacturers such as Molex offer similar connectors and latches, but these can have dif-
ferent mechanical structures and PCB footprints to what we use on the Interface Board. Table A-4
lists a pair of matched Molex parts that might be used.

Follow the PCB design and layout recommendations and considerations provided by the manu-
facturer for the connector and latch that you select.
The MiniCore may also be mounted with standoffs instead of a latch connector — this is the type of
mounting recommended for the MiniCore to maximize both the vibration resistance and the ground
connections via the standoffs between the MiniCore module and the board it is mounted on. The
height of the standoffs will depend on the mini PCI Express connector selected — Table A-5 pro-
vides some examples. Figure A-4 shows a footprint for this mounting option based on the mini
PCI Express connector in
Table A-3.
