.. and then there was 4 ...
Guess who just signed up for pain
@terriblefire - Go for the smt route for caps and resistors on the build. I know it's over the through hole component holes but it was so much nicer to build and quicker. I used mostly 0805s but there were a few 33R clock line resistors that where 1206s to span properly. Unfortunately there are a few points where the span is too long and had to go back to the through hole resistors.

@terriblefire It will be good to know when that will be!
@exxos When those 2 have gone, will you be considering another batch or the next iteration?

I have a CD32 clone from Germany to debug first.

Next board will have more SMT caps and resistors..
@Icky already swapped those a few weeks ago...I did all the fixes ages ago...
The only change I am contemplating otherwise is making the flashy clock socket a 3.3V bus.. And maybe putting a additional socket to the left of it

That extra socket would make
@PhilC buy even more sockets :lol:

If things were perfect i'd never be motivated to make them better.
