Hi, I finally managed to get all parts for the Bus Pirate v3.8 and also got some spare time to assemble it. The Micro USB connector was a little bit tricky to solder, because the pins are hidden beneath the housing. But with a fine soldering tip and some solder wick I got the solder where it belongs. BTW, the connector I used is Digi-Key 609-4613-1-ND.
Oh, and I should have used low current LEDs, they are a little dim. I will probably exchange them the next time I order some parts.
Thanks again for the free PCB. Definately a useable tool! Keep on hacking!
Hi, I just finished the build of a free XT-IDE (v1b) adapter. I want to use it to replace the broken XT (8-bit) disk of an old Schneider Euro XT computer with an ordinary IDE disk. XT harddisks are impossible to get nowadays.
Hi, I just finished my free Cortex M3 Breakout Board using an NXP LPC1343. Running at up to 72 MHz this has quite some power for such a tiny uC. I think I'll hook up some glue logic and convert it to a CoLinkEx Jtag-Debugger to be able to debug even bigger controllers. :-) Thanks for the free PCB!
