Notes

  • Datum: board centred on X and Y, bottom on z=0; +Y is the 5-pin header edge (GND, VIN, DRDY, SCL, SDA; GND at the +X end).
  • Board 16.51 × 18.42 mm (0.650 × 0.725 in), 1.6 mm, square corners.
  • One Ø2.24 (0.088 in) hole at (+0.20, −5.65): centre 8.05 from the +X edge and 14.86 below the +Y edge.
  • Not modelled: the 5-pad 0.1 in header and the HMC5883L IC on top.
  • Exact nominal mm.

Mating features

Drawn at the exact size. Open press, slide, run and socket features by your process's clearance (tolerances by process); leave designed gaps and clamp fits as drawn.
