Hello Guys,

I need to buy online (with international shipping) some epoxy PCB sheets.

Like this one, green in color, for an University project I'm doing, and I need the same material/color.

If anyone ones where to get this, I'm very grateful.

Thanks!

Daniel.

I am not sure if the color will match, but unclad epoxy sheets can be purchassed from digikey. Check out http://www.digikey.com and part number 12X12WE-ND . There are probably a lot of other places you can get this though. Hope this helps,

To match what you have it would be helpful to know what it actually is, FR4, G3,G10 etc many different types and Manufacturers. I am guessing you got your original sample from your professor, perhaps ask him.

I really don't know, I bought them at my local electronic shop and now they have a different one, like brown... And, their provider doesn't have the green one anymore...

A few years ago it was like red/pink, then this green/yellow and now brown... I searched eBay but no one is selling epoxy boards...

I'll continue looking, let me know if you see something like the one on the picture...

Thanks!

Daniel.

PS: I'm the professor... :D

OK Professor :D here are a couple of sample links, search for FR4, G10, and ebay for copper board or PCB, got good results using either.

Thanks a lot!

Ebay secrets . . . DOS wildcards work too, let's say you want stepper motors, you can search step*, steppe*, stepper motor* . . . work well, or search any word which might be related, if you allow search in titles AND text. Step* will bring up stepper motor and stepping motor. Use the minus sign to exclude words like so stepp* -stair* and you will eliminate stair stepper from that search.
