So the first prototype board is soldered. All parts are mounted now and everything is working except debug button, I have to find why is that because I couldn’t find any obvious reason.
The soldering was OK with only few places to be fixed because of strong acid mix, but nothing special.
Here are some pictures of the finished trigger.

- Top side with display unmounted

- Bottom side soldered
P.S. This is final and last prototype of the version 1. The next one will be better, without trimpots, with 3-4 keys, lot of menus and few outputs instead of one.
Stay tuned!!

Hi!
Nice project u have going!
How is the project going?
Will u release PCB and itemlist when ur done?
And when does u think u will be done with project?
Havent found any other site/blog that is making a flash trigger so i really hope u get it done soon so i can make it also!
Hi Ulf!
Thank you for comments.
The first part of the project is done, I have created prototype that is working properly and then I have found out what would I like to change on it.
Regarding parts and schematic I can release Eagle files with the first version of the project, the one on picture above. The second version is not done, it’s still on breadboard and I will release it as soon as I’m done with it.
The main difference between the first and the second one is that I’m planning to create second one with more outputs than first one, 8 of them at the max, then menu system for control of all of them and sync and so on.
I will write one post tonight with summary, schematics and part list for the first version.
