Card Builder in Europe? #9

Open lucdiniz opened 1 year ago

lucdiniz commented 1 year ago

Hello @jbilander, Do you know anyone building this card in europe? I found that in PCBway we can build the PCB but only on batch of 5. I don't need so many and I don't have the tools to build and burn any chip. Can you help on this? Many Thanks and great work

Hi, no sorry I don't know anyone building them and I don't have time to build any myself, and also the Xilinx-CPLD-chip is out of stock (due to chip shortage). I will probably build a couple of SF2000 that I released the other day here on GitHub. I will have a few spare blank PCBs I could sell but it is DIY to build it.

Regards, J

I would be interested in a PCB for hobby building. Maybe a bit long-term I could source the components. I would like to see if the board could fit in my A1000. I also have a A2000 that is currently under "reconstruction". Are you selling the SF2000 too? /Ulf

Hi @bipbopbap Unfortunately I don't have any spare SF500 PCBs, but you have the rev 1b gerber+drill file in a zip under releases if you want to upload to JLCPCB and have them make boards for you. The minimum order qty is 5 pcs though.

I will have some spare PCBs of the SF2000 soon. I have an order on the way from JLCPCB. Let me know if you are interested in one of those (for cost). It is a blank PCB, color blue, no components. Well I have some spare connectors. Also the Firmware is not finished for SF2000 and this is a hobby project so there are no guarantees on further FW-development. It is done when time allows. My hope with these extra PCBs is that someone can help with development and testing and not only buy it for normal usage. I don't have an A2000 myself to test the card in together with other cards, only A500.

I think the SF500 should work in the A1000 if it fits?

My email if you are interested in a blank SF2000 PCB:
