Re: gEDA-user: new boards!



Sorry if I missed this as part of the thread but once you did the brass stencil, what did you use to reflow the solder? Hotplate, toaster oven, air pencil?

I just finished populating the first board, which will be the "debug"
board.  The second one will end up in the furnace.  Note that the
furnace one will have the RJ45 jack transplanted to the bottom edge.

The brass stencil thing worked well enough.  There were only four
bridges on the whole board, and only one of those was on the 0.5mm
pitch connector, all easily fixed.

I'm going to have to do something about the power supply, though - too
much voltage being provided to the power module.  I've sent email to
the manufacturer asking for advice.  Meanwhile, I haven't soldered
those parts in yet.  I'm going to hook up a generic 5v supply for
testing, probably next week as we're going to visit my in-laws for a
couple of days.
