Need someone to fabricate this for me

alexbee13
alexbee13 over 5 years ago

Hi,

 

Forgive me if this is the wrong place but i am struggling and out of options at this point.

 

I designed a PCB for an ATMega8 and its basically a low profile Arduino that solders to PCB's similar to how ESP8266 modules attach using castellated holes

 

The issue is i am a complete novice when it comes to using a hot air rework station so i am struggling to solder them and if i do, i can never seem to program them via Arduino as ISP

 

I was wondering if there is anyone in the UK that could fabricate and send me these completed PCB's for a project for the original xbox.

 

I think my design works but again i have no way of testing them.

 

The image on the left is the final thing with it attached and the PCB on the right is what it looks like assembled (i think i have all the components i need on that board for it to be sufficient but again (complete novice at this)

 

If anyone would be able to help, i can happily supply the Gerber/schematic for what i have named (ATMegaX)

 

Thanks

 

What the final result would look likeThe chip in question i am trying to make

    How many of these do you need to solder ? You will get the best results if you use leaded solder paste, a stencil to apply it and reflow the boards in a decent oven. If you don't have all these things…

    Hi, I cannot volunteer to do this, but I can suggest an alternative; if you don't have the tools or experience for this, you're better off ditching the castellated board which makes no sense if it is carrying…

    Thanks for the tip of using a large hole under the center pad Michael. I hadn’t tried that and getting too much paste without a stencil is easy to do. Also agree that hot air rework is difficult with these…
