Banana Bread

This is part of the "Modular Breadboard" parent project.

This module makes it easy to add 4mm banana jack connections to your breaboard project! It has a high quality gold-plated banana socket and supports both standard and "safety" type connectors. An assortment of test points makes it easy to attach test hooks or probe stuff using standard multimeter leads.

The input is rated for 24A continuous current and PCB traces are spec'd to match that.

The PCB mount banana jack I used is the Schützinger SWEB 8094. It's easily available in Europe but might be hard to acquire elsewhere. Luckily there's a bunch of other compatible parts with the exact same footprints and measurements that might be easier to come by. Here's a list:

  • CLIFF FCR7350
  • Stäubli XELW-4
  • Pomona 73099
  • Amass 24.245.*

Feel free to open an issue if you found other compatible parts so I can add them to the list.

Questions

How big is the Banana bread PCB?

It measures 26 × 32 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Banana bread use?

11 parts, built around the 24.245.2, MTF185-204SY1 and 5001. 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 Banana bread KiCad files?

From the testudor/banana-bread repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Banana Bread.kicad_pcb and its schematic Banana Bread.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Banana bread design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
