This Hardware Specification defines only receptacles and mounting holes position for STX Baseboard. The dimensions of the STX Baseboard are not specified and system designer can use any dimensions that will fit the application needs.
STX Baseboard Dimensions "minimal" Configuration (Top View)
The stacking height of STX Baseboard with STX Module installed depends on type of STX Module (Type I. / Type II., Boxed / Bare) and type of receptacles used on STX Baseboard.
Components height
When designing the STX Baseboard, designer must observe the STX Module mechanical specification as it may limit the components height in area below the STX Module. The maximal components height depends on STX Module type and receptacles used.
