You also need: soldering iron (about 30 W, fine tip), 0.5 to 1 mm solder with flux, side cutters and a multimeter.

Assembly

  1. Mill the board: isolate the copper first, then drill, and finally mill out the holes and the outline. The order is shown in the Milling panel.
  2. Cut through the holding tabs, deburr the edges and rub the copper bright with a scouring pad. After that, do not touch the copper side with your fingers.
  3. Use a magnifier and a continuity tester to look for leftover copper between neighbouring traces; cut any bridges with a craft knife.
  4. Insert the parts from the side without copper and solder them on the copper side. Fit low parts first: resistors and diodes, then sockets and transistors, and finally capacitors, terminals and large parts.
  5. Before soldering, compare the polarity with the component layout: band of the diodes, flat side of the LEDs, minus stripe of the electrolytic capacitors, notch of the ICs.
  6. Solder each lead for about two seconds at around 330 °C: tip on pad and lead, feed solder until it flows all round. Then clip the leads just above the joint.
  7. Fit the four diodes D1 to D4 exactly as in the layout: the band of each diode is on the side of the line.
  8. Screw the 7805 to the heat sink (with thermal paste) and only then solder it.
  9. Visual check: no solder bridges, no dull, balled-up joints. Remove flux residue with isopropyl alcohol and an old toothbrush.

Test and power up

  1. Before switching on for the first time, check with the meter that there is no short between plus and minus of the supply. Power up the first time on a bench supply with current limiting if possible.
  2. Apply 7 to 15 V AC or DC to X1 (polarity does not matter): LED1 lights up and X2 shows 4.8 to 5.2 V.
  3. Check the heat under load: if the heat sink gets too hot to touch, use a larger one or lower the input voltage.
  4. Finally protect the copper side against oxidation with solder lacquer or plastic spray.
