INPUT/OUTPUT PCB
Almost done! Get the two input/output jacks, the DC jack and the wire header and snap them in place.
The PCB is designed for them to fit securely, so you can do them all at once before flipping and soldering.
After you’ve soldered everything, make sure to
snip the leads on the I/O jacks as close as possible to
the PCB
. There’s not a lot of clearance between the bottom of this board and the top of the main PCB
once everything is in place, and you don’t want the pins to short against anything on accident.
Next, we’ll hook up the 9V battery connector.
This is optional.
Not everyone uses batteries. But, if you
do, this pedal should last a long time on a single 9V so you won’t need to change it very often.
PARTS
Input & output jacks
DC jack
Wire header
9V battery snap
STEP 1
Thread the battery snap leads through the strain-
relief hole twice so it forms a single loop.
STEP 2
Bend the exposed wires back down and solder them
into the pads. Red is positive (+), black is negative (-).
After soldering, pull it tight.
For even more strain relief, you can thread the snap
through the loop to form a knot. (not shown)
