First of all, thanks to the NEC rep who replied to my brother's query.
His company has recieved the materials that they needed, and are quite
satisfied. Hopefully the NEC regional rep will get a fire lit under
them (that was the level that the problem was at).
Now on with the story:
I've wire-wrapped a few things in the past. Now I need to make some PC
boards for things which are not suited for wire-wrapping due to
mechanical considerations (e.g., a "daughterboard" that sits in place
of an IC chip & adds various functionality). I have a good idea of
what's required for making PC boards, i.e. that you have a
photoresist, a mylar transparency, and an ultraviolet light, and you
do it all in a darkroom then dip it into etchant. What I don't have is
the specifics -- the specific methodology, the chemicals used, where
to buy supplies, etc. Is there a "how-to" sort of book for etching PC
boards? Have any of the major electronics magazines published articles
on how to do it? (I can fetch such articles off of microfilm at the
library, though it'll be expensive).
(a sad day, eh, when a software guy takes up a slaughtering iron? :-)
