New CPLD PCB

2004-07-19 by leon_heller

I've just uploaded pics of the top and bottom of my latest home-made 
PCB to Photos>Leon's>CPLD_Top.jpg and CPLD_Bottom.jpg. The CPLD is an 
Altera EPM7064B in the 44-pin TQFP package (64 macrocells and 36 
I/Os). A pad lifted when I was tinning them with a piece of desolder 
braid loaded with solder - the braid was too wide and the bit too 
large. The other bodge is a missing ground connection on a decoupling 
capacitor.

I've only connected a few of the I/Os as the board is intended as a 
simple working demo for a customer to play with.
