Thanks for sharing that :) I would instantly throw away all my "work" and just get that PCB made but I refuse to surface mount solder PLCC sockets
I already tweaked my board's layout again to the point where an autorouter can complete it
I thought I'd get myself to learn PCB design by modifying Bolle's MicroMac Performer clone to remove the PDS slot and Classic CPU socket, thereby specializing the upgrade for a Macintosh Plus only.
I started from this repository which has several KiCad projects you can just open right up...
I applaud your choice of soundtrack :)
For those curious, the Motorola 68060 is roughly equivalent to the original Intel Pentium. Guess which one is more performant though
Personally, I would avoid the Chinese brands and go for anything made elsewhere (i.e. Japan)
For switch-mode power supplies you probably want low-ESR caps. You should see if the old caps are low-ESR.
So you're saying you removed all the electrolytic caps from a logic board, and you expect it to work without them? You have to solder new caps, either polymer or tantalum.
Who needs a recapping guide? roll your own!
Crack that baby open, count all the caps, and order replacements off DigiKey or...
Why don't you just sell SCSI hard drives loaded with these el1te macc warez? No need to be worried about getting removed from Internet Archive or limewire
