The PCBs did arrived today. But there are two errors in my design, which I should have noticed. First the footprint of the p-fets is wrong. SOT23-6 is much bigger than TSOP6. This error could be fixed by getting other p-fets, but the second error is wore.
Double checking footprints of cheap Chinese LEDs seemed to be not enough. After some frustrating soldering I did noticed that I did used the wrong footprint for the LEDs. Some how I did make them to big. So it is very difficult to solder all four pads with contact.
So how will it go on? I will redesign the PCB. Mostly I will just change the LEDs footprint I think. and I will get right p-fets. In this way I need only new LED PCBs.
