Title: PICquino32 DIP Free PCB Build
Post by: pietja on October 15, 2011, 01:06:46 pm
My latest free PCB Build the PICquino32 DIP.

[attachment=1]
Again everything is hand soldered with my trusty Weller WSD81 soldering station.
Its build with a mix of old and new parts, most passives i got from an old lexmark laser printer, some parts came from ebay, the the other parts i got from Farnell so did the PIC in a huge tray again (http://http://dangerousprototypes.com/2011/08/04/repairing-the-picqueno32-dev-board-prototype/).

When programming the FTDI chip to show PICquino32 DIP as its name don't enable High Current I/O's because it will stop the reset button from working.

Is there a prize for the best use of a lexmark laser printer? :)

Oh I just noticed! How is the push button you are using? I wanted to try it out on a few of my own things, but I was not sure about the quality. Is it a very smooth push, or more like a hard click when you press it? I don't know how else to describe it. :P

Very nice soldering btw!

Its a tactile switches (http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tactile_switches.jpg) so it gives a click when you press it, and with all switches make sure you don't get any dirt in it or even the best quality switch is worthless.
