rbasoalto 10 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Hi everyone! Based on the HC-05/06 Bluetooth BoosterPack in the store (cannot post links yet, so find it yourselves ) I wanted to make a one-layer version, with traces coarse enough to be done with the toner transfer method. I live in Chile, and airmail shipments from China (seeed, itead) usually take 5 to 7 weeks, so I designed this to be done in a couple of hours over the weekend. Obviously the one layer is on the top, so pins for breakout would have to be soldered on the bottom, or with some patience/skill on the top. The shape is just bigger than final because it'll be cut after all the etching and drilling is done. Also I put SMD leds and resistors so they can be on the top layer, leaving the bottom for the female/stackable headers. This is my first PCB design with non-DIP components (and my second or third overall), so there's probably lots of room for improvement. I'll appreciate your comments. Thanks!

bluehash 1,581 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Looks great! for your first. Do you have a bluetooth module? I can send over one from DX. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rbasoalto 10 Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 Looks great! for your first. Do you have a bluetooth module? I can send over one from DX. Thanks! I do have one from DX. I ordered it like a year ago for a project with a PIC18 (yuck!), before I fell in love with MSP430's. I never got to use it because of its DIP-unfriendliness. I have two more boosterpacks in mind (hd44780 + 4x4 keypad, and CAN using MCP2515), I'll post when I get them in a decent shape. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fred 453 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Make sure you post a picture of your final result. I'd be interested to see how it turns out. If you're looking to get some professional looking results I can thoroughly recommend adding your own solder mask - http://www.instructables.com/id/Dry-Film-Solder-Mask/ . I've only used it on a couple of CNC-milled through-hole boards but was very pleased how it turned out. I spent a couple of weeks in Chile snowboarding a few years ago and thought it was great.
