Supplier: Link: Note: Temporarily used to hold the controller together Name: Pin template Quantity: Part number: Package: Supplier: Ytec3d Link: Note: Optional, 3d printed. Used for mounting the pogo pins more accurately HP45 controller V1.01 assembly guide -Ytec3d.com- Page 10...
4: Solder the SIRA12DP-T1-GE3 (IC3) mosfet on the front of the primitive side with the marking facing the 26 pin boxed header. The pins on the SIRA are hard to reach with the solder, and require a bit of heat before the solder sticks to it. HP45 controller V1.01 assembly guide -Ytec3d.com- Page 11...
