Arduino Laser-Tag Back PCB Module (Part.2 of 8)

Here is the Stage.2 on building up the back pack module.

Now you can build your own high -tech laser-tag system using Arduino, bringing the futuristic thrill of laser-tag Innovations kits - directly to you. This laser-tag system is a fully functional laser-tag set in kit-form, allowing you to build your own arena and gear.

The complete kit comes with all parts includes the following items (front, back, Phaser Gun parts and Shoulders 3D case, all Resistors, Transistors, I/R receiver diodes, I/R Tx diodes, Laser, Battery Charger, Cable and Body vest with cable and fixing plates attached for you. (plug & play)

Build your own DIY Laser-tag system “Great fun” Ideal for schools, clubs, and hobbyists

If you want to purchase a complete kit ( All parts supplied) or a Short-form kit (All PCBs components assemble and tested only) Also you can purchase any spare parts as well. Please Contact us.

Insert and solder all the resistors to the PCB in the kit.

Insert and solder all mylar capacitors 0.1uf - (104) to PCB.

Insert and solder all mylar capacitors 100uf 16 volt - to PCB.

Now insert the BC337 transistors.

NOTE: The flat side of the transistor goes toward the flat side on the PCB.

Insert the decoder IC with the notch facing towards the top of the PCB and solder.

Insert the encoder IC with the notch facing towards the top of the PCB and solder.

Insert the 433MHz Tx module facing the correct way round in the PCB and solder.

To set up a code on the Encoding IC solder or place a wire link on one of the pads.

Solder the 5mm Super bright LEDs to PCB.

Bend the legs over on the I/R(Infrared) receiver diode and solder to PCB

Insert and solder the Arduino Nano (programmed) module to PCB. NOTE: Make sure it is inserted the right way round before soldering in place.

Insert the 8 pin sockets to the bottom top side of PCB.

Here The complete finished back PCB, now ready for testing. Check that components are solder and inserted the correct way round (Arduino module, Transistors, and LEDs, and the IC chips.)

Do the same Assembly again for the other PCB that is supplied with this kit (Shoulders and Phaser Gun)
