What I meant to say here was "With PIC mounted and programmed" and "With
both TPS75003 and PIC mounted, and PIC programmed."
Ugh. I should stop trying to send emails in the late evening and early
morning.
In any case, the new 0J28 boards arrived today, a day early. All of them
are usable, the vias are drilled out a little smaller than I expected
(read: 0.6mm has become <0.4mm)... not that it matters. The immersion
silver coating looks very nice, and should solder nicely. Drill points
and silkscreen alignment are right on the money.
I'm expecting the solder paste squeegee tomorrow, and will likely nip
into Farnell to pick up a 500g tub of Multicore 318LF solder paste and
possibly some more parts next week. Somehow I don't think a 25g syringe
of RA15 paste is going to cover three boards...
I'm still waiting for an RFQ back from another distributor who reckoned
he could beat Farnell's price on the FPGAs (not that hard). Once I have
that I should be able to sort out a final price for fully assembled boards.
Onwards and upwards!
Cheers,
