Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Pressure Compensation of Electronics



Absolutely right, failure does breed knowledge, it's best when it's someone else do the experimenting so that you for that.  Did you ever try potting the circuits in resin?  Based on your knowledge, do you think it would do much good?  Really, I need it to do a LOT of good, because my goal is 60 atm :)    --Doug

The electronics may or may not survive depending on your equipment. Most CCD cameras will survive, the board may survive (I don't know about that specific board) BUT I wouldn't bet on it. Most off the shelf uncompensated small ICs will crush at about 2atm in my experience, Especially reed switches and some capacitors.
 
This is all been found out by the many failures of BugEye I (Yeah, that project just did wonders didn't it. But hey, failure breeds knowledge)
