RE: Phono Faceplate - Photos

I am making a PCB for the IR circuit at the moment and am just about ready
to etch this weekend. If all goes well I should have two pairs by Sunday. I
was wondering - your circuit is much more complicated than the IR one, how
do you get it onto the copper. I have used the iorn on thingys that are
printed with a laser and then touched it up with a pen. This has not been
altogether successful. How do you prototype?

Thanks for the forthcoming words of wisdom.

Ian

Thanks James.

The prototype SCART faceplate you saw was cut using a router and a homemade
jig.

As you saw I got the measurements slightly wrong for the area to be cutout
but the finish acheived was excellent. Actually producing the cutout with
the jig only takes a short while.

The company that I will be using for the PCB manufacture also offer a board
population service so I could get ready addembled PCB's, partner them with
a
routed out faceplate and put them in packaging to send out :-)

Tonight I will be etching 4 boards to prove the KAT5-AVS layout is correct
before sending the artwork to the manufacturer to get the first batch of
boards. Once I have those in production I will concentrate on the switcher
and faceplate modules.
