DIABLO I and II diagrams, and a "original" PCB

Happy new year for all the Geotech forum members!

I'm posting new versions of the DIABLO schematics. I've found a minor mistake around of the LM392 in the schematics that I drew before. They are now correct.
I also drew a PCB reversing the original Tesoro's design. I'm working in a new one smaller than this, but still needs some adjustments. In a few days, I hope I can post it.

Regards,

Fabián

Excellent work Fabian.
If you are interested in factual Tesoro Diablo II board dimensions, here (bottom view) drawing for help:

Thank you WM6. It's good to know it, but the original Tesoro box it's impossible to find (I think so) and is for that, that I made a squared board. I think it is simpler to fit into any box.

I'm watching that my drawing is little bigger than the original and surely is caused by photo's deformation. I think that it could be reduced with little effort. As I say in my previous post, I´m working in a new board, based in the schematics and the LOBO's board, that I started to draw before to know your photos and this is smaller, closer to the original. I will publish soon.

hello Fabián,

did you finish the ne pcb layout? Would you post it here?

DIABLO I & II PCB's

Hi Bernard. Here it is. The PCB is working, but my "nightmares" (homemade coils) still doesn't like me totally. A friend of mine bought a original coil in eBay for me in the USA, and I'm still waiting for it arrives.
I'm planning to buy a ten turn potentiometer in eBay too, cause I only have a 30 turns pot from an old VCR or a TV. (Maybe it could be better, I still don't know)

Anyway, the PCB of the DIABLO I, for me, works well and it could be a good notice that somebody start to build another one to compare it.

Hope that you can do it.

Fabián

Hello Fabian,

good format of both pcb, many thanks

best regards Bernd

[Fabian]

Thank you Bernard. It took me a lot of work and time, but I'm happy about the result.
In a few days, when the coil finally comes, I will work again with this project.

Regards.

nice work,data for coil?
and different between two version?
regards

[Fabian]

Thank you Mohandes.

The specs of the coils are the same of the old LOBO published here in the forum, as I wrote in the schematics. I used 0,25mm wire for the TX and 0,20mm for the RX, and the necessary turns to achieve the inductance and resistance.

About the differences, DIABLO II have a "Mineralization Switch", that does not exist in DIABLO I, and the Threshold control pot is not in the rear panel but in front panel.

For those interested, here our friend "ivconic" version of (Sprint Layout) board:

As master Ivconic always does, a very good work...

Nice work nakky.
You didn't "controleren" it?

[nakky]

Dankzij WM6,
Ja ik heb het controleren met schematische Tesoro Diablo goud demon-by Fabian en WM6 (2014).
