Description

As electronic design hobbyists/engineers, we spend a lot of time thinking about, designing, and building our creations for ourselves or for our clients, so we asked ourselves, "What kind of enclosure would we want to put the finishing touches on our project?" So we coupled a high quality enclosure with a designed-to-fit high quality PCB protoboard with an ENIG finish. We also provisioned the board with a cutout to allow room for a 9 volt battery or two small lithium-ion cells. We found that by using some double sided tape and a small piece of foam attached to the inside of the enclosure lid, we were able to secure the 9 volt battery in place. The board is setup like a typical protoboard but also has an additional 3x30 array of independent pads to allow for some room for placing additional components. The enclosure base has 4 mounting bosses and 4 screws for attaching the PCB. An enclosure lid and screws are included with the product. For those projects requiring a custom front panel with controls, if you have access to a 3D printer and Fusion 360 (or your favorite 3D design tool) one thing we like to do is to 3D print custom lids as front panels. This allows for creating a really clean and sharp looking front panel coupled to a solid and rugged enclosure base. The 3D models can be downloaded below.
