[sdiy] Self-Soldering Circuits

[Kenny]

Dear valued customer, as your monthly subscription is three months in arrears, your synth has automatically self destructed. Seriously, this is really neat stuff.I wonder how much more testing it would take to proof an audio design with such a large ground plane ( radio antenna ? ) now forever in place.In the past, I have gotten myself into trouble by, willy nilly, making all open spaces into ground plane.

But then again, since we get internal layers for free (JLC making 8-layer PCB for $2 now) it's no brainer to leave one or two layers for the heater. Although I would put it in small enclosure to prevent unnecessary heat loss, which causes temperature gradients in the components when done in free airflow.Another use of this technique is to make ovenized exponential converter.With cheap & small  DC/DC converter pumping 1A at 0.5V this should be enough if not too much.RomanW dniu 2023-01-18 o 23:31, cheater cheater via Synth-diy pisze:> This could be cool if you don't want your kit's user to have to use a> soldering iron...
