U401 is an LM2595 switcher in a TO-263 package. The big square is where the heatsink tab is soldered down. I plan on using the hotplate to solder and desolder them, but in case I need to use the iron, I put in thermals. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
