A thought

[BlueBMW]

Are you thinking to make it even thinner?

[thesteve]

Yes thinner
I cut the board to half thickness
Cut a hole for the chip and soldered it on with the bulk of the chip through the board for an example

[BlueBMW]

Pretty slim.... Hehe

[turbokon]

Whoa thesteve, that's seem like a lot of work:)

I know there's no room for the bottom shield with the current configuration in the TE/GT.  Maybe there is a better spot for the region chip like opposite of battery bay area.

I think the secondary goal here is to make the wires as short as possible so fitting the chip as close to the hucard slot as possible is desirable.

[thesteve]

Both correct
Even with the current board thickness were the board notched, thickness wouldn't be an issue
That's why I have have been installing the chip without the board

[turbokon]

That's why you're the master thesteve:). I tried installing without the board once, I had trouble with it.

should make the board using SN74CBT3383CDBR

and NC7S02M5X

[BlueBMW]

Whats different about those two?  They look smaller but are there some performance or efficiency gains to be had?

[thesteve]

the 5 pin chip is 1 channel of the 4001 (about the size of the transistors i used for the component circuit)

the 3383 is the same, only half size
