Next, you’ll populate the diodes—only one on each board, so this step is pretty simple. The 1N5817 is
black with a silver stripe, while the 1N4742A is orange with a black stripe.
Diodes are polarized, so make sure to identify the polarity band (which indicates the “cathode”, or
negative side) and match the band to the footprint on the PCB.
