Reserving the name Kristen Wiig. Just got my 4-layer board, so expect some more content soon. I may try one of the ideas from my "Give me your wacky ideas" thread. Stay tuned!
What I had done in the past to deal with the non standard spacing of the pth regs on protoboard was to put header pins in the back corner pins and gnd pin (since those fit with a standard spacing) then put 2 header pins next to the Vin and Vout pins and connected the PTH through hole to the header pins with solder like this:Regulators, my video converter, and some finer wire and solder came in today. Waiting on my filter caps and wavebird controller(s).
I didn't realize that the pin spacing on the regs was so non-standard
So much for my proto-board idea.

Ah, okay. So that requires I have the regulators complete first?Just be sure to check each voltage input to ground and maybe each other.
