Beowulf Posted March 26, 2007 Report Posted March 26, 2007 Hi to everyone out there...I am pretty new to all this Midibox and SID stuff, but, I decided to take the plunge and build one.I know a bit about PICs and programed stuff on SID chips about a thousand years ago (I learned assembler on a C64 as a youngster before moving on to Motorola chips) so I am really looking forward to this project.I was looking around for some PCB masks on here but couldn't find any so I did my own...I think they are complete and I'm building some PCBs with them this week.I mostly use Press 'n' Peel these days, it's quicker and produces some pretty good results.These two are in Word format and print fine on my laser. I use a guillotine - the small one with a rotary cutting blade and a slider - to cut them out. I managed to fit quite a bit on each sheet as you can only pass the sheets through a laser once to my knowledge.Anyway...I will be building a sequencer soon and if anyone is interested I will post the PCB sheets for those too.Cheers guys!Dout and Din.docsid schematics for printing - monochrome Sid and Core.docDout and Din.docsid schematics for printing - monochrome Sid and Core.doc
Beowulf Posted March 27, 2007 Author Report Posted March 27, 2007 OK, OK, I noticed that when I checked the boards these produced there were errors :-[, so I corrected them and here are the better versions...I blame my bitmap converter >:( and me for not checking thoroughly enough :-[These are much better... :)Dout and Din monochrome.docsid schematics for printing - Sid and Core monochrome.docDout and Din monochrome.docsid schematics for printing - Sid and Core monochrome.doc
stryd_one Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Hi beowulf. I don't want to be a downer, but..... did you know that these have already been done?You can download the brd files, open with Eagle Light, and print them out... For Eg mbhp_core_v3.brdAs word .doc files do not always print the same size, word docs are not a suitable format to save these either :( (and they can sometimes transmit viruses)Anyway, it's nice of you to make this effort for us all. I hope this helps!
Beowulf Posted March 28, 2007 Author Report Posted March 28, 2007 Hi,I didn't know they had been done like this, these are formated to print on letter format for press 'n' peel so the boards are printed onto a single sheet at a time.I did do a search for somthing simliar, but couldn't find it and rather than mess about trying to do it in Eagle I found it easier to export the files as images and do it in word.Ah well...
