Ok, have to decide whether to default to 0603 or 0402 for resistors and
stuff on a new design. Wow, this time I am not size constrained.
Looking at Digikey it comes up with 143 pages (has risen) for 0402
resistors and 218 pages for 0603. Looking at prices 0603 still has a leg
up, around $0.003 for a 10K while its 0402 counterpart runs about twice
that. Is 0603 going to be a good choice for the next years? Or better
stick to 0402?
Of course from a debug point of view I hate to deal with 0402. With
chips the situation seems to be more clear cut. Things definitely seem
to be going TSSOP there.
