About the Z input PCB
Z input is an open source PCB design by Secoh, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 60.7 × 38.1 mm, with 19 components from 16 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the APC-817B-SL and OPB616. By type, the board carries 7 resistors, 5 diodes, 4 connectors, 2 ICs and 1 transformer.
From the project
Educational etudes related to electronics, schematics, PCB layout, etc.
Fairly random collection of designs related to my hobbies, with backup in hidden agenda. Historic items are in PCB123 (private vendor-specific, incompatible with anything else); more recent work is KiCad and LtSpice.
