Tashtari's Miscellaneous Macintosh PCBs

Posted by: Tashtari on 2025-07-19 04:13:42 Finally got around to making available the board files and Gerbers for the kits that I've sold (and continue to sell) in my Ko-fi shop, in case you want to manufacture your own instead of buying kits from me. Also put my HDI-20 adapter board there, and will probably put future small project boards there in the future. Enjoy, and do let me know if you find anything there useful!

Posted by: Tashtari on 2025-08-31 07:06:25 The parts I use for the TashSync boards are easily repurposed into a passive Mac video to VGA converter. I'm sure I'm not the first to do one of these, but this might be the most compact one out there - it's barely bigger than the two connectors! Despite this, it uses all through-hole parts, so it can easily be assembled by clumsy soldering iron jockeys like myself. Two 1N4148s mounted Japanese-style, a bank of 6 DIP switches, a DA-15M, and a DE-15F, and you're there. Its BRD file is now in the repository and its gerbers are in the latest release.
