Page 11: ...t I do try to supply sockets for the chips so unless I am out of stock you should have one per chip Solder these in place without the chip totally protecting the chip from heat Please check you have all pins through the pads before you begin soldering the socket Switches This kit includes SPDT toggles They are used for a variety of matters within the circuit simply switching between different rout...

Page 12: ...e 10 and 63 is the max voltage Manufacturers do have other ways of indicating values though unfortunately Where things can get difficult is with poly boxes of 100nf and above sometimes you will see a 100nf marked as 104xxxx ie the picofarad notation has been used for the value Equally you may see 1xxxx ie 0 1uf the x s denote the tolerance and voltage It is still the same 100nf capacitor The reaso...

Page 13: ...uild from small to big therefore step one will be to identify the resistors and any diodes inside your kit Each kit has a parts list at the top of the guide So as an example if R1 is listed as a 1M resistor then you dig out a 1M from the pack and place it on the PCB in the R1 spot It s your call if you put one in and solder or put a few in or even put them all in and solder I ll let you decide The...
