STEP 2 – Soldering the Capacitors.
There are 9 film/ceramic and 7 electrolytic caps.
Soldering the caps from small to big:
6.8nF
capacitors (5 units): C2, C5, C7, C8, C9.
100nF
capacitors (2 units): C1, C11.
270pF
capacitor: C4.
4.7uF
capacitors (3 units): C3, C6, C10.
Tips before soldering:
Be careful with the electrolytic caps polarity, the negative lead (the short one) has to be placed in
the round hole with the white semi-circular paint, check the image below:
