AD9866 Heat Sink

The AD9866 may run hot in some builds of the Hermes-Lite 2. There are small heat sinks such as this or this which may be used to help cool the AD9866. The size of the AD9866 is 9mm by 9mm, so care must be taken to not short pins if any heat sink that size or larger is used.

A small custom PCB for AD9866 shielding and heat dissipation is planned. It will lay flat on top of the AD9866 and connect to ground at several of the large ground through holes near the AD9866. More details will be posted here and on the Google group once this PCB is designed.
