Crazy bc then ppl want new pedals for $129 lol omg
KiCad
OMG, their equipment is ancient! 🙁
The cloud is EVIL. All part of the ULTRA EVIL globalists wanting us dependent on corporations and their puppet governmenst. Die WEF, die!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW, there is KiCAd open source.. Just saying 🙂 I personally use DipTrace now, but I used to use Orcad & Protel in DOS, yep DOS! I have used Eagle for a while, but it is not intuitive in any way, so I would NOT recommend it at all! Also any software that is NOT perpetual license is also EVIL and should be boycotted by all! EVIL EVIL EVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This ist a interessting Video. But why you Not User an cheaper Fabrikation in China. Is the Qualität bester in Amerika , or you need the Platinen quick to make changes.
I worked for a company that made PC boards for ICBM's. We had a gold plating tank where we gold plated the tabs. I got a little sneaky and gold plated $20.00 worth of Kennedy half dollars.
Just like downtown.
I did through hole until 2000 but switched to surface mount. I built bed of nails test stands for later projects.
Aye, sucha heartthrob….
At my day gig I design a lot of flex circuits and rigid pcb's. I like your designs and how they have evolved from using breadboard. As a guitarist, I might just have to get one of your pedals.
Cheers! Rick<><
Great presentation and information. Thank You!
totally here her on that cloud thing.
I go back far enough to when you used Bishop Graphic tap, pads, IC patterns, etc. And multiple Mylar artwork sheets for multiple layers. I slaved over a light table doing some of these with as many as 60 digital IC's. Then they got the bright idea to have red and blue translucent tape for the two layers that you could put on a single Mylar sheet. You used the usual black pads. Then the art was photographed with blue and red filters to get the two layers and the black pads showed up on both. While this solved any registration issues, you ended up with the two color tapes crossing each other all over the place. If you had to make a change, you invariably had to remove a piece of tape that was UNDER the other color in many places. So this scheme went out of favor pretty fast. Then all manner of electronic schematic and PC layout software were developed. I used software from "Tango" which I think came from Australia of all places. Laying out PC boards is solving a puzzle and a little bit art. It is SO much easier today where you do the art on your computer, send the file, and often get boards back in a miraculously short time.
