About the Papertape panel PCB
Papertape panel is an open source PCB design by Supermagnum, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 210 × 88.9 mm, with 144 components from 111 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the DEV-12640. By type, the board carries 17 switches, 11 resistors, 9 transformers, 9 LEDs, 2 jumpers and 1 IC.
It belongs with the sensors designs in this gallery.
From the project
This little manual paper tape reader is easy to build and operate. It connects to any modern computer via USB, and performs well with all kinds of 5 to 8 bit paper tape, including translucent paper materials.

Design and documentation by Jürgen Müller / e-basteln. This repository contains the firmware, PCB design files, and manufacturing data for the manual optical paper tape reader described on the e-basteln Paper Tape Reader pages.
PCB files converted to KiCad. Note that the main board and included spacer template PCBs use 1.6 mm thickness. The Gerber files in gerbers/papertapespacer/ are for those 1.6 mm templates** (identifiable by their larger aperture holes), used as alignment guides during assembly.
