Hi

 

Just use the Pages & Files mode on the wiki to navigate to the S-100 pages.
Here is the URL.  It takes a little getting used to but works with a little
experimenting.

r%20prototyping%20board> &param=S-100%20regular%20prototyping%20board

 

DFM = Design For Manufacturing using www.freedfm.com to verify the Gerber
and Drill file set are in fact a board that can be manufactured.  It is
important to have realistic tolerances and clearance since manufacturing at
economical prices is not capable of producing the perfect boards an EDA tool
set can design.

 

DMF, that's a good one.  J

 

Thanks and have a nice day!

Hi Andrew,

I must be real slow.  I click the "Regular Prototype" board on the right
hand side, and also see it down the page... but neither takes me to a file
download area.  Instead i get some 8086 folder and VDP folder??  Perhaps I
need to click with my left hand?

PS. What is DFM?  I know what DMF is (been called that before).

Thanks
Josh

Hi

 

Are you able to see the Gerber files from the KiCAD EDA file set?  

 

I would generate those and run them through DFM before even considering a
manufacturing run.  

 

I am confident the file set is current since I made the ZIP file on 1 Feb
2014 and there has not been any changes to it in about a year or so.

 

Thanks and have a nice day!

Andrew Lynch

Hi Paul, Steven,

Great.  This is the only board I'm willing to have made ahead of orders.  I
am positive they will sell, if not, I will have a life supply of prototyping
boards.  But, before I send an order to the factory, I want to make sure
someone else is not ordering them.  It doesn't make sense for two people to
have a stack of these.  

Steven, where you thinking of ordering a batch from the factory?

Regards,
Josh

From: [email protected]

Josh:  Both Steven Feinsmith and myself have recently expressed interest in
a run of the unbuffered prototyping board.  I have brought this topic up
several times over the past year or so (most recently 2-3 weeks ago, without
response) but there's been insufficient interest (borderline none) and I
haven't had sufficient immediate need to strike out on my own with a run of
only a few much-more-expensive boards.  I'd like to see us get the volume up
to the point that we approach/reach the $20 per-board cost, but that means
at least 20 boards.  I'm not sure that each of us wants 7 boards ... but
three interested parties is certainly better than just one :->.

I'm located in Maryland; not sure where Steven is located.  I gather that
CA-US shipping cost is asymmetric -- here-to-there is cheaper than
there-to-here?

I'd be willing to serve as "trail boss" if there's sufficient interest.
Andrew did offer to get me started last week, but I still await sufficient
interest ...

Can I get commitments on board counts from interested folks, please?

Thanks,

paul

Hi Group,
 
I am thinking of helping out and doing a board run.  I was planning on doing
the unbuffered prototype board, but Andrew thought someone else here may
already have that in motion?  First, let me start by saying I'm in Canada,
so it may be a little more costly to ship to the US, but internationally it
might not make any difference.
 
Can we hear a vote of which boards to build, and a show of hands who might
want to build them?
 
I don't want to organize the group... but with a little communication I
believe we can organize ourselves.
 
Regards,
Josh
