Gameboy button layout

Post by sggeek » Tue Nov 14, 2017 9:38 am

Hi guys, i'm trying to make my own pcb , (emphasis on word 'trying'). And I'm down to the step where i'm arranging the buttons. Then it occured to me if there is already a fixed position of the buttons out there, like an open document that I could tap on, or is there any other options or opinions you guys can share?
Like for this pcb i think i'll need the exact positions of the mounting holes, dpad, start, sel and action buttons, as well as the mounting posts for aligning the board.

I may be able to make a Drawing. I already got the button PCB. Or a scanned image?

you can also pick up any pcb picture from Google Image and use it as a background to draw vector top of it and then import that vector into something like Autocad and resize it, export to dxf, and so, you will have the outlines and position for your PCB software :?:
