 I just started working on this page, but it will be the future home of the boards and designs I have made over the course of making my own projects.

 +===== Projects =====
 +
 +  * [[mb-sidr8tr:​start|MB-SIDR8TR]] - Rackmount MidiBox-SID using the MB-6582 baseboard with customizations housed in a 3U rackmount chassis.
 +
 +===== Boards =====
 +
 +All these boards (and schematics) were created with the free version of [[http://​www.cadsoft.de/​|EagleCAD]]. Some designs have been marked up with some custom layers requires for [[http://​www.batchpcb.com/​|BatchPCB]] (specifically the silk-screening process). I'm always open to ideas if you know how to make the designs better! Otherwise, they are here for the taking to do with as you please. I only ask that you give credit where credit is due if you plan on making your own modifications. This is just a request, however, and isn't required :)
 +
 +==== C64 Optimized PSU ====
 +
 +This board is a re-creation of the power section of the [[http://​ucapps.de/​mbhp/​mbhp_8xsid_c64_psu_optimized.pdf|C64 Optimized PSU]] schematic from ucapps. The nice thing is that it's quite tiny, although the regulator may tend to get hot my original design didn't account for adding a heatsink. For small setups, though, it should work.
 +
 +Details about this board can be found on [[http://​www.midibox.org/​forum/​index.php/​topic,​11936.0.html|this]] forum post. I'll eventually add the schematics and board layout as a direct download from my website.
 +
 +==== BankStick 7-1 ====
 +
 +I built this board partly because I was having trouble building it on a prototype board. I based it off of the BankStick x8 schematic available from ucapps with minor modifications. I call it 7-1 because 7 chips can be placed on the board itself, with an optional header to make it possible to hook up an external BankStick.
 +
 +The only problem I ran into with this board was that my design rules didn't exactly match those from BatchPCB and, as a result, my ground plane was split. It was easy to fix, however - I just soldered a wire from the GND of one of the chips to the GND on my DIL header. Since it's on the bottom, the aesthetics are preserved, although if I end up making another one of these you can bet I'll be fixing that ;)
