  1. Question Identification of X1 component

    Hi everyone, long time no see. I've had a bit more time on my hand and was inspired by some of the recreations of the Wii motherboard. As a result, I have begun the process of designing my own in Kicad. I am little bit confused however by the part labelled as X1 on the Wii. From my...
  2. Question Trigger system

    Hi everyone, Have a bit of what might seem a silly question but couldn't really find an answer from looking at all the different trigger L/R designs. I was basing this trigger off Jackson's Wii sp 2, since this is the sort of case I want to design. Currently, in Fusion 360, I have completed...
  3. Question QFN soldering

    I have had some varying success with using hot air to solder QFN parts, but I can rarely get it reliably done. For example with JacksonS's amp, it took a couple of tries to solder the PIC & get it actually programmed. What do you guys use to solder QFN parts? Is it just hot air, stencil and...

  7. [WTB] U10 Needed

    Hi guys, I've been a long time lurker of this forum and have finally bitten the bullet and attempted to build my own portable. After a lot of mess ups and some practicing with soldering, I've finally managed to successfully relocate the Bluetooth module (34g wire made things a lot easier). I've...
