Assembly hints 1.3 Soldering Hints : 1- Mount the component against the PCB surface and carefully solder the leads 2- Make sure the solder joints are cone-shaped and shiny 3- Trim excess leads as close as possible to the solder joint REMOVE THEM FROM THE TAPE ONE AT A TIME ! DO NOT BLINDLY FOLLOW THE ORDER OF THE COMPONENTS ONTO THE TAPE.

Use & PCB 7. Use 8. PCB To use the circuit without problem, take into account the power dissipation in the regulator. The transformer voltage must always be 2V higher than the maximum desired output voltage. If, for instance, you need an output voltage of 12V, then you need to fit a transformer of 14V.
