Re: Prius Gen3 Inverter Hacking

Hey Damien, I am building a Prius Gen 3 V1 board. This is the most challenging board I have attempted to populate myself, but I was pleasantly surprised how well it turned out (so far). I got boards made and a stencil for solder paste, put the paste on the board, and placed the surface mount parts ...
