SPACE REQUIREMENTS FOR PRINTED-CIRCUIT BOARD APPLICATIONS AND DIMENSION
TOLERANCES
For the maximum product dimensions and maximum space requirements for length (lmax.), width (wmax.) and height (hmax.)
following tolerances must be taken in account in the envelopment of the components as shown in the drawings below:
• For products with pitch ≤ 15 mm, Δw = Δl = 0.3 mm and Δh = 0.1 mm
• For products with 15 mm < pitch ≤ 27.5 mm, Δw = Δl = 0.5 mm and Δh = 0.1 mm
• For products with pitch = 37.5 mm, Δw = Δl = 0.7 mm and Δh = 0.5 mm
• For products with pitch = 52.5 mm, Δw = Δl = 1.0 mm and Δh = 0.5 mm

Eccentricity defined as in drawing. The maximum eccentricity is smaller than or equal to the lead diameter of the product
concerned.

For the minimum product dimensions for length (lmin.), width (wmin.), and height (hmin.) following tolerances of the components
are valid:
lmin. = l - Δl, wmin. = w - Δw and hmin. = h - Δh following
• For products with pitch ≤ 10 mm, Δl = 0.3 mm and Δw = Δh = 0.3 mm
• For products with pitch = 15 mm, Δl = 0.5 mm and Δw = Δh = 0.5 mm
• For products with 15 mm < pitch ≤ = 27.5 mm, Δl = 1.0 mm and Δw = Δh = 0.5 mm
• For products with pitch = 37.5 mm, Δl = 1.0 mm and Δw = Δh = 1.0 mm
• For products with pitch = 52.5 mm, Δl = 1.5 mm and Δw = Δh = 1.0 mm
