This is a replacement switch for the Game Boy Light. The original MGL switch is an unusual 3PDT for which a suitable replacement isn't currently known. This design uses a standard SP3T switch and mosfets to replicate the ability to turn on the system and back light with a single switch.
This repo consists of three main components:
- Kicad 7 source files(in
root) - PDF schematic(in
artifacts) - Gerbers(in
artifacts)
To make it easy to assemble this project, the gerbers for the current version can be found in artifacts and uploaded at your PCB fabricator of choice, e.g. JLCPCB. For best results, follow these paramters:
- PCB type: Flex
- PCB thickness: 0.11mm
- Layers: 2
- Stiffener: 0.2mm PI(see user comments layer)
- 3M tape: 3M9077(see user comments layer)
Below is a screenshot of the complete order parameters from JLCPCB:
