Default High Resolution PCB Scans Available

I thought that it would be helpful for kit builders to have a high resolution scan of a completed PCB. I provided a poorly done scan to two builders and they thought it would help a lot. The first scan was made on a small scanner which required 4 images. They didn't line up perfectly.

These scans were made on a large format scanner. It didn't provide enough brightness to expose the board so I had to use Photoshop to enhance it. That's why it looks a little funny.

The 600dpi scans are about 10MB each, and the 300dpi scans are 3MB each. The 600dpi scans are worth the wait.

The bottom side of the board has black sharpie next to all of the pins. I had to chase a cold solder joint so I fixed every one of them in the problem area. I marked the rows that had been completed. Hopefully you can look beyond that. I will post another bottom picture as soon as I build another unit.

I also imagine that people without the kit will still want to download the pictures!


Have fun!
