TIMBER v1.1 - Assembly Guide
bastl-instruments.com
INTRODUCTION
This guide is for building TIMBER module from Bastl Instruments. It is good to have basic soldering
skills and to be able to identify electronic components before starting this kit. However if you have
never soldered before, check out this

.
The TIMBER kit consists of two boards. All the parts comes in three bags separated for Top board,
Bottom board and Assembly parts. See the Bill of Materials (BOM) for detailed list. We even included
some of the best quality solder to help you solder everything faster and better.

Page 5: Bottom Board
BOTTOM BOARD RESISTORS Start with the bottom board parts. First of all, take your time and check the v alues of all r esistors using a multimeter (or you can check the color codes if you are seasoned enough): 470R (4x), ... - Page 9 DIODES Solder also the d iodes. There are actually five types of them: 1N4007 (2x), 1 N4148 ( 2x), 1 V zener diode (4x), 2 V4 zener diode (3x) and 4 V7 zener diode . Be careful, d iodes are polarized ! Make sure that the marking ring on the diode body matches the marking on the circuit board...
- Page 11 IC SOCKETS Now solder the I C sockets (3x 14 pin and 1x 16 pin). M ake sure that the notch on the socket matches the print on the board . MALE HEADERS Move to the m ale pinheaders now (one 2 pins and one d ouble 5 pins right angled ) . First help yourself with connecting the power cable to the double pinheader (see the picture).

CERAMIC CAPACITORS Let’s do the c eramic c apacitors . These parts are not oriented. There are s ix values o f them: 47pF (2x, marked “470” on itself) 560pF (4x, marked “561”) 1nF (1x, marked “102”) 10nF... -
Page 15: Electrolytic Capacitors
ELECTROLYTIC CAPACITORS Let’s do the e lectrolytic c aps ( 2x 1 0μF ) . These ones a re polarized! T here is a plus (+) sign on the PCB that has to match the longer lead of the electrolytic capacitor (actually the minus (–) side is also marked on the body of the capacitor with a white strip). - Page 16 INSERTING ICs Next don’t forget to place I Cs into the sockets (1x V 2164 , 3x T L074P ) . T here is a notch on each IC that should match with the notch on the socket (this is super MPORTANT...

Page 17: Top Board
TOP BOARD RESISTORS Let's move to the top PCB now. Again, start with the r esistors : 1k (4x), 1 0k (2x), 2 2k (2x), 4 3k (2x), 6 8k (1x), 8 2k (2x), 1 00k (12x), 1 50k (1x), 1 M (1x) - Page 20 DIODES Next solder the 1 N4148 d iodes (6x) . B e careful again, d iodes are polarized !
- Page 21 MALE PINHEADERS Add the tiny m ale pinheaders from the other side of the board (one 2 pins and one 3 pins ) . Just be careful to solder them straight. IC SOCKETS Move to the I C sockets (1x 8 pin and 1x 14 pin). Watch out for the o rientation !
- Page 22 CERAMIC CAPACITORS Now add the c eramic c apacitors . There are just seven of them in three different values: 47pF (1x, marked “470” on itself) 100nF (4x, marked “104”) 470nF (2x, marked “474”)
- Page 23 PINHEADERS Now it’s time to connect the boards with pinheaders. 1) Mount the spacer with the screw to the bottom board first. 2) Insert male header into the female one. 3) Put the header on the bottom board facing the female one down. 4) Place the top board on and secure it with the other spacer.
- Page 24 INSERTING ICs Before the last soldering run, insert the I Cs into the sockets (1x T L072 , 1x T L074P ) . Again, watch out for the n otch o rientation ! ( for TL072 is relevant the dot on it)
- Page 25 JACK CONNECTORS, POTENTIOMETERS & SWITCHES You are almost done. Let's do the rest of the components by just putting them in first ( n o soldering yet! - It starts at point 7! ) : 1) Unmount the top board. 2) Mount the spacer to the ...
- Page 27 4) Check the s witches : t hree-position ones (3x) goes to the top line, the t wo-position one is placed in the bottom. The orientation doesn’t matter on these parts. 5) Insert j ack c onnectors (9x).
- Page 28 6) Place the f ront panel on the top board and mount the jacks. 7) Mount the spacer with the other one. Check the position of all the parts if they are flat on the board and at the right angle and do the soldering ( S OLDERING TIP : you can start by soldering just one of the leg at each component so you can make adjustments easier by reheating) CLEANING (OPTIONAL)
