 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

We've noticed your love of strip board. :) Had you noticed that it's cheaper to get five 100x100mm PCBs from JLCPCB than it is to buy the same area of strip board? I was surprised when I found that. Providing you need five the same it's a very good deal.  Mick Zilog Inside! nascom.info for Nascom & Gemini Preliminary MMBasic docs & my PCB designs |

I prefer the approach of creating a board that can be reconfigured to do different things. e.g. have either a VGA connector or a LCD connector, have SD or micro SD. That way you can use five boards in five different ways. :) Mick Zilog Inside! nascom.info for Nascom & Gemini Preliminary MMBasic docs & my PCB designs |

my vga picomite is still on stripboard as it's not permanent, takes up too much space and I use the lcd boards more so they're soldered for stability. Pcbs are permanent, can't add stuff or adapt them.  |
