The assembled control unit already arrived a while ago, but I only got around testing it today.
You can see a photograph of the PCB above. Unfortunately I already noticed a stupid mistake at this level: I forgot to route the reset signal to the I/O header. Since this was a circuit level mistake, no DRC caught this. Well, luckily that's easily fixed with an additional wire directly to the reset-driver.
Thanks! The high brighness is to some extend only relative, due to low ambient illumination. The LEDs are actually only driven at 1 mA or so, and that is also needed to get fast switching. There are not many options to select less efficient LEDs...

I love it! Those look like some bright LEDs though. I would have gone with ones that weren't so bright.
Are you sure? yes | no
