Sony DXC 1200P Trinicon Color TV Camera - Bare PCB


A Sony DXC 1200P Trinicon Color TV Camera bare PCB. Some of the components have been removed to reveal the component layout printed on the component side of the board.
Such component layout printed on the PCB itself is usually use in the days when electronics PCB are still hand assembled - operators have to insert component by component into the PCB on assembly lines. Nowadays all this is done by computer controlled machines.
And despite cheaper labour costs in those days, this camera is still expensive because of the many manual manufacturing steps involved.
