If you are using one of GuitarPCB’s 3PDT wiring boards, pads S4, S5, S6 and D6 would be ignored and R10 would not be installed when
choosing to mount the status LED on the 3PDT wiring board instead. We like to provide different options for builders.
Other important notes:
●
Socket your Transistors
–
You may wish to change them later and makes troubleshooting a lot easier.
●
R10 is the current limiting resistor. Brightness is a preference. 1k8 will yield a very bright LED and the
higher the resistance the dimmer the light. 3k or even 4.7k has been used. This is your choice.
●
For transistors, diodes, and LED’s, use SIP (Single inline package) sockets. You simply cut the
number of sockets required with an Exacto knife. This allows for easy changes and troubleshooting.
