Button circuit boards to use with PiSP

thingiverse

Circuit boards for the buttons utilized in the PiSP. NOTE: NOT FINISHED. Todo: Create circuit boards for shoulder buttons, establish vias and header pads for them, create a Start/Select board, and this is just an early draft; any suggestions to enhance it are welcome. If dimensions are not correct, write a comment. If it does not fit correctly, write a comment! If vias are connected to the buttons incorrectly, you understand. If nothing is being written, I assume all is well. Instructions If you create this board in the manner described, you will need: Laser printer, Glossy paper (catalog/magazine cover paper works well), Copper clad board, Lamination machine or hand iron for those feeling brave, Etchant (Ferric Chloride or Cupric Chloride), Drill press, Hacksaw or other cutting tool, Sink. Process the circuit board as follows: Print PDFs onto catalog covers or other glossy paper releasing toner easily. Secure the print to a copper clad board cut to the proper size. Transfer the print via heat; laminating 12 times is suggested. Dunk in water and, after soaking through, remove wet paper by rubbing. Place the circuit board in an etchant such as Ferric Chloride. Clean the board and remove carbon masking with Acetone or rubbing alcohol. Drill out copper pads and screw points. Solder components and wires as needed. Install into the PiSP.
