100nF ceramic capacitors (2 pcs)
The tiny yellowish capacitor with 104 written on it is a 100nF capacitor used for filtration and for digital
reset via the serial adapter board.
22pF ceramic capacitors (2 pcs)
These capacitors are used as a part of the 16MHz oscillating circuit along with the previously listed crystal.
They look similar to the 100nF
capacitors so don’t let that trick you.
Recognize them by number
22
(symbolizing that they have the capacity of 22pF)

Various pin headers and connectors
All these pins and headers are used for connecting various modules, expansions, and programmers to your MAKERbuino board. There are four
types of connectors included in the MAKERbuino kit:
6 pin angled female header
This tiny black connector is used for connecting your MAKERbuino to the serial UART programmer board (important
for programming the console).
2x3 male angled ICSP header
Used for connecting expansion modules and an ISP programmer for reprogramming the game console’s
microcontroller over ICSP (in circuit system programming)
protocol.
2x5 male angle extra breakout header
The 10 pin double row angle header is soldered to the rightmost part of the game console and is
an extra option that gives you some extra useful pins for connecting hardware expansions.
