finally I have made my first pcb at home

[nightcatz]

hi,
Finally have made my own pcb at home thanks to nice link by gayan,and spl thanks to gary for this design,from now on I will be busy trying to make my own pcb design ....it is really helpful and the process of etching using ferric chloride with it heated really speeds up the process,my 2"x2" board is done in 30 min............i forgot to mention the process was speeded up after i added a little hcl(diluted)

Congrats. Looks like it came out nice.

Wow it looks good.It looks like an AMP circuit for me.

From which software did you make the drawing? or by hand?

Next time you can reduce the Track Width in your PCB Designs.

is it toner transfer method?
i make all my PCBs using this method.and it always worked well.

Which paper do you use? It looks good.

 

[student1616]

its clay coted paper.
usually u'll find it in costly magazines.when u touch it ,it felt smooth and shiny.
and don't go for very thick paper.will be little hard while socking.

I use magazine paper too; its the most cost effective stuff for the job.

i have been useing magizine paper also but its the kind that student is talking about (although i didn't know about the clay). the only problem is i only had one magazine and it wasn't realy a magazine,another words i can't just go buy one.you know of any magazines made with the whole book like this. it is well worth any extra money. i gues like specail editions and stuff

Are you going to bump every old PCB post you can find ? This one is 5 years old !

I'm new to forums. Sorry. I'll try to find only recent posts.Thank you.

Sorry. I'll try to find only recent posts.

Please don't. It's bad practice. Members get annoyed at duplicate posts. You've already got a post in the relevant forum (Circuit simulation & pcb design). If it proves popular the Mods might make it a 'sticky'.

ok. Understood. Thank you.
