Bill of Materials

The kit comes in 2 bags: one for all of the BPF boards and one for the main board.  The kit the author built did not come with the U4, SI570.  That was ordered separately.

Kit Contents

The v8.3 kits are sorted into four small zip-loc bags. One bag contains the circuit board and the packet of
ICs.

The four BPF module kits are together in a zip-loc bag.  Included with the BPF kits is a 9-pin length of a SIP pin strip. This pin strip is to be used as a tool to align the 2-pin and 3-pin sections of the header sockets on the v8.3 main circuit board. Afterwards
the 9-pin header strip may be snipped into 2-pin or 3-pin lengths as spares for the pins that mount on the bottom of each BPF board.

Withn the main board bag is a pink anti-static IC bag containing the two SOT23-5 ICs (FIN1002 and LP2992AIM5-3.3) and the 74AC74, FST3253 and LT6231 The two SOT235 ICs are rolled up in the bottom half of the pink anti-static bag. There are two staples through the bag that provide an upper compartment for the three SOIC parts and a lower compartment for the two SOT23-5 parts. First remove the staple that allow the SOIC parts to be removed and then remove the second staple to get to the SOT23-5 parts. Abbreviated markings on the top of the FIN1002 IC indicate that it is the FIN1002.

The third and fourth zip-loc bags in the kit include the resistor/capacitor bag and a hardware bag. Included in the resistor/capacitor bag is an anti-static bag holding the programmed PIC (U3), the PIC socket, the DIP switch (SW1), and the 5 volts LM7805 TO-220 cased regulator IC (U1).
 

Caveat: Note that the SMT caps come in two different strips: there are 5 SMT caps (black stripe on strip) that are 0.1 µF (6 are shipped with the kit); there are 10 SMT caps (unmarked strip) that are 0.01 µF (11 are shipped with the kit). Do not get them mixed up.

Here is the complete bill of materials for the kit. 

Individual components are identified to the particular stage in which they are installed.

The components associated with the four individual bandpass filters are identified to the circuit identified as "BPF-#", where "#" is a number from 1 to 4.

1 The BPF boards will arrive in a strip of four boards. The builder will need to hacksaw the individual boards out of the strip. (See "sawing the boards" in the BPF Stage Installation notes.)
