Option 1 

 
Install  the  smallest  components  first.  All  the  components  mount  on  the  front  of  the  board.  Use  the 
placement guide below.

[   ] 

Install D1, the small glass 1N4148 diode, Match the black end with the silkscreen outline. 

 
[   ] 

Install R1, 100 ohm resistor, (brown-black-brown-gold). See note in General Design Notes, 
concerning function button volume. 

 
[   ] 

Install C1,2,3,4, 100nF (.1uF) capacitor, marked 104 

 
[   ] 

Install 8 pin dip socket 

 
[   ] 

Install C5, 10uF electrolytic capacitor. 

Observe polarity marked on the board. Long lead is “+”.

  

 

 

 

[   ] 

Install U2, 78L05, observe the outline shown on the board. 

Mount U2 very close to the board, so 

that the top is no more than 1/4”  above the board. 

 
[   ] 

Install Q1, 2N7000 mosfet, observe the outline shown on the board. 

Mount Q1 very close to 

the board, so that the top is no more than 1/4”  above the board. 

 
[   ] 

Install S1, 90º tactile pcb switch where indicated. 

 
[   ] 

Install J1, 3.5mm audio jack where indicated. 

 
[   ] 

Clip all the leads flush on the back of the board. 

 
[   ] 

Install the ATtiny45 IC. Be sure of pin 1 orientation, the pad is rectangular. 

  

 

When inserting IC’s, the pins are flared so that they can be retained by auto insertion tools. Gently rock 
them on a flat surface so the pins are parallel and they will insert into the socket  more easily. Be sure 
of pin 1 orientation.
