Buzz Fix Kit

Use this board to make assembly of the buzz fix kit a bit easier. I have included an SMD version as well as a THT version. The THT version can be used with the kit sold on Console5.com here:https://console5.com/store/vectrex-de-buzz-kit.html

See https://console5.com/wiki/Vectrex_PreAmp_Buzz_Reduction for more informationa about the circuit.

Questions

How big is the Vextrex Buzz Fix PCB?

It measures 19.8 × 37.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Vextrex Buzz Fix use?

11 parts, built around the TL082. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Vextrex Buzz Fix KiCad files?

From the arithmaldor/Vectrex-Buzz-Kit repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Vectrex Buzz Kit - SMD/Vextrex Buzz Fix.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Vextrex Buzz Fix design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask arithmaldor before reusing the design.
