All the blue wiring was actually putting pressure onto one This project thus leaving my recommendation of leaving a row or two of holesįor cable routing. The reason on why I said it was theįinal was because I made a mistake. Resistors to its perspective BCD decoder.

Should I Need more I’ll replace it with the smallest wireĪfter I finished wire wrapping the shift register and the BCDĭecoder I moved towards wire wrapping the resistors. Currently I’m using 2 for power, 3 for signals. Here are some shots of my wire wrapping as I progressed on.Ĭlose up of the interface pins to connect to the MbedĬontroller.

Hour or so learning how to properly wire wrap, I have finally found the Zen Image below shows roughly how much area both shift registers and the BCD Additionally I had toįigure out the area it was going to occupy including the wiring route. Hopefully that is the final purchase I have to makeīefore I started wire wrapping, I populated my prototypeīoard to see how many Wire wrap IC I would need to place. No matter since I canĪlways reuse it to spool some wire onto it. Packages came only in a cardboard box with some foam.
One thing which I did not expect was the reel of resistors. So I received my package from Newark on March 25th.
