2. We will start by soldering the SMD components to the PCB. This may look a bit complicated but in fact this
is easier than soldering Trough Hole components.
3. At each of the SMD components – apply a bit of solder to only one of the two pads.
6. Now your PCB will look like this – solder the other sides of the SMD components:

RO SoldERING MANUAL
1. Take all components out of the bag and sort them.
4. take a pair of tweezers and slide the SMD componets into place
while you warm the pad that already contains solder. (TIP: look at some
youtube films on SMD soldering if this is new to you)
5. Put these components in place:

Use the same technique to solder all the other SMD components: a. 2 diodes (be aware of the polarity) b. 2 capacitors (grey components – no print) of 22pF c. 9 leds – be aware of the polarity – the side of the led that misses a small triangular corner is the cathode (- side) WWW.

We use PICKIT2 – but the cheap PICKIT2 clone from China will do fine b. We use the Hitech C compiler and MPLAB - but it will also work with other software.
