DIY serial JP1.2/3 IC build

Post by rem »

Hi, Just a post to see if I'm on the right track to build a serial JP1.2/3 cable using the IC. I've placed the build onto a stripboard design.

Will someone verify that I've plugged the components in the correct places please?
I've used the Serial connection colours as in kernowkoi's guide

Points to note:
a) I've discarded the capacitor for simplicity, as TT mentions that it is not important.

b) The diagonal links only connect the endpoints!
c) There are cuts underneath the horizontal resistors R3, R4 & R5.
d) I've assumed pin 10 of the IC is not used.
d) I used DIY Layout Creator http://www.synthdiy.com/show/?id=2489

Edit: I've just amended the original version a little to make it clearer and given it a v1 suffix. I have also created a v2 version that looks a little neater.
I'll be grateful if someone can check that they are correct so that the may be used for building an interface cable. Thanks.

Anyone care to comment?
I.e. is it correct? Will it work? Will it damage the pc or remote if I build it?!
