___ 

Mount the 10 uF electrolytic capacitor 

 

 

 

 
Insert the 10 uF electrolytic capacitor into the holes on the board, making sure that the lead 
with the “- - - -“ markings next to it is inserted OPPOSITE the hole marked “+”.   The “- - - - “ 
band should be facing 

away

 from the processor chip.  Double-check to make sure that you 

have this inserted correctly!  Turn over the board and solder the leads to the board.  Trim the 
leads flush. 

 

 

 
 

 
___ 

Mount the 6-pin header 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Note that the header is not symmetrical, one side of the pins is a little longer than the other 
side.  Insert the header into the holes at the front of the board, using the SHORT side.  The 
LONG side should be on the TOP side of the board.   You will probably need to use masking 
tape to hold it in place, you want to make sure that it’s absolutely vertical and that it’s seated 
completely against the board.  Turn over the board and solder the pins to the pads.
