ORDER THREAD: 266-style PCBs

roman_f · Post by **roman_f** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 7:03 pm

so, i got the test-pcbs, assembled, tested and now ready to take orders.

there are 3 kits offered:

- 5U format kit - $130
- Buchla format kit - $120
- Euro format kit (24HP) - $110

each kit contains 3 large pbcs - 2 for the components and the 3rd one for holding all the hardware (pots, leds, jacks) - no wiring would be needed.
3rd pcb in 5U and EURO also carries components for voltage shifts, so they are adapted for the cv/power standards.

3rd pcb of 5U is really big, so the price is higher, buchla's is smaller and euro pcbs are the smallest

boards are connected together with 2 ribbon cables
cables and sockets are included

worldwide shipping would be $10 per order, for any amount of kits
the paypal address is in@btwn.us

please DO NOT pm me - use my email for the communication - in@btwn.us

after you make an order - please email me with the description of the order, your full shipping address, you real name and your muffs nickname (if you are on muffs). do not forget to mention the format you want to have.
please title the subject of the email as "266c"

please also make a comment here if you order - it would be easier for me to find you later.

i will set up another detailed Build Thread with boms, drilling templates, links to get rare parts and panel-makers offers.

all technical details are discussed in this thread.

thank you
roman

When you say kit, what is included? Is it PCB's and full components?

3 PCBs, 2 ribbon cables with IDC connectors, 4 pcb-mount IDC sockets

Just to help with peoples (mine) decisions, does anyone have a rough (+/- $100) cost for the components?

paypal sent for 1 kit in euro format.

the full project on mouser is around $90
+ 5 vactrols (2 dual and 3 single - $9 each @ smallbear)
+ a noise chip ($15)

most of resistor values are generic, but there are some "rare" resistors as well.
+ 0.1% resistors for the voltage shifts

so the total components value is $150-200 depending on
i will share the detailed BOMs at the end of the week

85 capacitors, ~270 resistors, 20 diodes, 3 zeners, 28 ICs, 6 transistors

it would be much cheaper if you have a stock of resistors/caps since they are not cheap if you buy just 1 or 10

expensive transistors (2N1711) can be replaced with 2N3904 AFAIK, since they are used for driving LEDs only

Paid for 1!

I think I will have to use this project to do a comprehensive restock of my underground electronics laboratory. mwhaha.

Before sending payment wanted to ask if there will be full documentation provided?

Thanks!!

That looks a nicly designed bit of hardware - you must be pleased?

I would like 1-off the 4u unit - i will send you some funds when i can scape some up!

i think someone could manage a Serge panels run
i advice to use EURO kit for Serge

Could we get an estimated depth in mm of the euro unit please? Pretty close to the Buchla in the photo?

57mm from the plate to the end of the inserted power-cable
