Let’s begin!
1. Female headers: Lay the PCB on a smooth, flat surface with the component side up. Insert one of
the female headers (part #HE-30-01) in its place (1). Make sure the ends of the header’s legs are
flush with the solder side, underneath the board. Hold the header straight up at 90 degrees and
solder one of the legs on the component side (2). Once the header is tacked down by one leg,
finish soldering the rest of the legs on the same side of the board (3, 4). Do the same thing with
the other female header in its location (5). Be sure it is soldered in at 90 degrees to the PCB. As
you continue building the rest of the PCB try not to bump or bend these headers; how well your
Altura PCB fits into its case depends on the straightness of these headers.
