Step 10
Now, you could skip this step but it is recommended that you do it. Get the 100nF...1uF SMD
capacitor C2. It is used to filter out the supply voltage for the TLC59401 IC together with the “103”
capacitor C3. Since those RGB LEDs draw pretty much current, it is a good idea to provide the
TLC59401 with a stable power source (VCC) as much as possible.
1. You will probably need tweezers for this step.
2. While holding it down on the PCB, solder just one side.
3. The hard part is over, so now solder the other side also
and you are done.
