So far I'm using the same BoM from [[../KeyerPerfboard|the perfboard design]]. Here's a paper test using a 1:1 scale printout of the silkscreen and solder mask together: So far I'm using the same BoM from [[../KeyerPerfboard|the perfboard design]], but I'll probably switch up CON1 with Digikey part 609-2845-ND (vertical rather than right-angle) so as not to block the lower-left mounting hole.

Also, the 0.1" pitch right-angle screw terminal blocks I used are just slightly longer than 0.4", so I lightly sanded down the facing sides for CON3-4 until they fit snugly but evenly in a piece of perfboard and then attached them to one another with a tiny dab of quick-setting adhesive gel (being careful not to get it into the terminals themselves): Also, the 0.1" pitch right-angle screw terminal blocks I used are just slightly longer than 0.4", so I lightly sanded down the facing sides for CON3-4 until they fit snugly but evenly in a piece of perfboard and then attached them to one another with a tiny dab of quick-setting adhesive gel (being careful not to get it into the terminals themselves):

This printed circuit development board was laid out using Fritzing, and an order has been placed to Fritzing Fab for a prototype to QA. I'll post pictures once it arrives in a couple weeks, but here are some tidbits to tantalize:
