new thing modulator vero layout

[smccusker]

I had a crack at doing a vero layout for this simple circuit. this is the first time i've done a vero layout and i tried to keep it as tight as possible, though i still think it could be tighter. all comments welcome as always.

oh, the original schem is here

That's great !
Just cut off the "spare" trace top 'n bottom .... ~:D

Thanks, looks good. The more you do the easier it gets. It's small enough, other than cutting off the top and bottom strips like Marty said, I don't really see where you could save much space. 8 strips and 12 holes is only around 3/4" X 1 1/4" with the vero board I use.

You could eliminate that jumper on pin 2 just put the output cap in its place move the output up one strip. No need to cut the trace at pin 8 then either.

It would not help with this layout but if you use a socket for the IC you can run jumpers like this layouts pin 7 to ground connection, under the socket. Just something to keep in mind for future layouts.

Great job!

Yes, jumpering 'under" the opamp socket is a nice trick and sometimes can save
you 2/3 "holes"

ah, good idea. my spacial thinking is a bit rusty 

thanks for the comments guys.

It's a great little layout, but everything is wieved from the non-copper side. Just to let you know...
