Problem Title:
94 DATA BOOK 3rd: PQ100 package dimensions on page 4-10


Problem Description:
The 2nd and 3rd editions of the data book have different outer pn dimensions for

the PQ100 package.

2nd edition shows 17.90 x 23.90
3rd edition shows  17.20 x 23.20

2nd edition matches current production parts.
3rd edition matches IPC guide lines.


Solution 1:

There are two existing standards for this package.
We are current moving towards the IPC standard as shown in the 3rd edition.

Current supplies of the 17.90 x 23.90 dimension parts will be sold up until June
 1996
After this time the 17.20 x 23.20 dimension parts will be sold exclusively

Any PQ100 package device with a date code of 9614 (April 96)
or newer will be the 17.20 x 23.20 dimension.
