I'm doing some small boards with the 14 pin g2001 chip.
I grid to design the board using a standard 100 mils header but it's quite bulky with respect to the rest of the board.
Moreover the combination of the and micro and the headers brings a footprint similar to the dip chip.
I can reduce to 3 contacts (and get power independently) but the size reduction is limited.
I know there are the 50 mils headers used on some ti boards, but they look rather fragile. Am I wrong about that?
Moreover I wonder if there are other possible space saving alternatives..
Thanks in advance,
Massimo
