This Swirly Aluminum Mounting Grid is specially engineered to simplify the secure connection and assembly of boards featuring plug-and-play STEMMA QT ports, such as our dev boards, sensors, and feathers. It enables users to quickly assemble projects with up to 6 boards, without requiring a breadboard as a mechanical substrate.
The grid is made out of an 'aluminum PCB' - we have that in quotes because while technically it is made with a PCB process for single-sided aluminum-core PCBs, there's no actual copper on here, its just the aluminum backing, and then black soldermask with silkscreen. The aluminum is conductive both electrically and thermally - so watch out if you are using metal screws to attach stuff. Unless, that is, you want to turn the whole thing into a ground plane in which case: go for it.
Each square is 0.6" x 0.6" and there's holes or slots every 0.2 inches. With the various dots and dashes you can pretty much make anything on a 0.1" grid fit. Each drill hole is 0.1" / 2.54mm diameter, the slots are 0.11" x 0.3" (2.75 x 7.5mm) And if that's not good enough, the aluminum is easy to cut/drill/machine/bend if you need more customization.
This one is 5x5 'blocks', so 3" x 3" in size or about 75x75mm
