Please take the time it needs to build this kit. Tinkering is not task work and should be enjoyable! Please share with me any errors, unclear instructions, or ideas for improvements. You can reach me at gregor@pikoder.com. I am looking forward to your feedback. - Page 4 Contents of the Kit and Tools needed The kit in front of you contains all the necessary components needed to build a PiKoder/SPE engineering board including the pre-programmed PIC16F1455. Please verify the completeness with the help of the attached checklist.
- Page 5 Engineering board PiKoder/SPE construction manual You also need the following tools: 1. Electronic Soldering Iron 2. Electronic Solder 3. Side cutters 4. Multimeter Additionally, to commission your board you will need: 1. USB cable 2. PC with PiKoder Control Center...
- Page 6 Construction The following paragraphs will describe how to populate the components on the circuit board. The silk print on the circuit board will support this process. All parts are populated on the top side. The order of the placement of the components depends on their height;...
- Page 7 Engineering board PiKoder/SPE construction manual Test step: Check USB connection By far the most support requestes and problem reports are linked to the USB connection. And it is very difficult to make any fixes or repairs once the con- troller (IC) socket is placed.

- Page 9 Engineering board PiKoder/SPE construction manual Populate the LED Place the LED. Please note that the LED is polarized and that the shorter wire needs to be on the left-hand side (see red arrow). Populate the pin header The last components you would solder on the circuit board would be the pin headers for PPM and UART.
