Rotary encoder backlight board
This simple board allows you to neatly and painlessly install LEDs on top of a rotary encoder for use with transparent/translucent knobs.
I designed this board when building a MIDIbox SID synthesizer based on the MB6582 design. The idea was inspired by Hawkeye's control surface build tutorial for the MB6582, but I didn't think I'd personally be able to do a very neat job with enamel wire, and so I decided to design a simple PCB to make it easier to achieve this kind of lighting.
The PCB has been verified to fit perfectly over Alpha Taiwan RE160F-40E3-20A-24P-003 and Bourns PEC16-4220F-N0024.
Where can I get them?
- I have several spare sets available to anyone who wants them - contact me on Twitter if you'd like to buy some!
- I've also added the PCB to OSH Park as a shared project if you'd like to order from there.
- Alternatively, you can download this repository and place your own order with a PCB fab service.
